I have received an e-mail from Comcast indicating that they are changing
their DNS servers and I must set up to automatically obtain the DNS server
addresses in the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog box by March
12. I have some of my systems set up with a static IP address and I lose the
ability to select Obtain DNS servers address automatically -- the only
selection is Use the following DNS server addresses.
I have the modem connected to a router. Is there a way to use a static IP
address on a computer and still obtain the DNS automatically? Will I have a
problem with Comcast's DNS servers on the March 12 cutoff date?
I have been using the DNS server addresses from the router for the computers
that have static IP addresses. Can I continue to do this?
Any and all suggestions and pointers are appreciated. I have just "followed
the directions" to get this lan setup and have never had a problem in the
past year or so, so I am somewhat at a loss with its "inner workings."
Thanks
Jim Maki
