    It might be possible that there is a wireless connection available near your home.

  • i don't have a wireless rooter...so it's not possible for my computer to detect any wireless connection even if it is there..

  • I just downloaded it from http://www.fiberdownload.com and works perfectly! DNS Jmper is great :)
    Thanks a lot

  • WOT gave it a bad rating...

  • Thanks for the mirror I forgot to point out that WOT rating.. As a side note for WOT users that site is not that bad.. Some categories should be yellow at least..

  • No configuration to edit the available DNS servers, which makes this this application a joke.

  • Frankly, if you find changing the DNS settings on a computer to be "difficult", you really should not be doing it. I've lost count of the number of postings on the net about folks who screw it up, especially in AD environments. How many times have we seen someone use an ISP's DNS servers as their local DNS servers instead of the ones internal to their domain??

    Utilities like these are, IMNSHO, more dangerous than useful...
