Hi Alexa;

Depends what Shaw node you're on; and in what city. For example for my service 
in Edmonton:

Primary Server Name: ns2ar.ed.shawcable.net 
Primary Server IP: 24.70.95.212
 Secondary Server Name: ns1ar.ed.shawcable.net 
Secondary Server IP: 24.70.95.195

If I'm correct in the assumption that you're in the Okanagan you'd use:

Primary Server Name: ns2ht.ok.shawcable.net 
Primary Server IP: 24.67.253.212
 Secondary Server Name: ns1ht.ok.shawcable.net 
Secondary Server IP: 24.67.253.195 

If I'm incorrect in my guess about the location someone (Derek I believe) 
already gave a link to the trouble shooting page at Shaw that lists all the 
DNS servers. Here it is again:

http://support.shaw.ca/troubleshooting/dnsservers.htm

Depending on what version of Windows hubby is running you should be able to 
gather the rest of your information (LAN settings including assigned IP 
address for your machine on the local area network) you need from there. 
Actually you can get it from any version, I'm just not that familiar with all 
versions. Such as XP.

I'm a Shaw customer as well so ask away. If I don't know I'll probably know 
someone that does. But never forget that the more information you give the 
easier it will be for the fine people here to help. Hell; I may even be able 
to jump in once in a while too with help. <vbg>

I'm one of those people that always says the only "dumb" questions are the 
ones you _don't_ ask. :-)
