Where are is the link to download?

Alright so I went to the link provided and was able to find the "download" link. However when I click on it all I get is a link to the webpage http://cable-dsl.home.att.net/files/W2KWXPDNSfix.reg where it just has plain texts reading...

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters]
"NegativeCacheTime"=dword:00000000
"NetFailureCacheTime"=dword:00000000
"NegativeSOACacheTime"=dword:00000000

I presume this will help my problems with intermittent connectivity issues, so if anyone could tell me how to solve this that would be awsome, thx

copy that text into notepad and save it as a something.reg file. then you should be able to double click it to add it to your registry.

but it could still be a problem with your ISP (or their providedd equp.)

also so as not to be off topic, i think a packet sniffer or calling your ISP (though they will probably blame your network card(S) or OS settings) is the only way to know for sure.

I am having the same problem ........... after trying a lot of things, I went to my (dual boot) Linux OS. I did not have any issues with my connection, so this problem exists only in Windows. I am going to try this fix as it does sound like it's worth a try.

I've had problems with intermittant internet connections twice in the past coupla years.

First with Windows XP. Second with Windows Vista.

Both times i had a top of the line Netgear router

Both times, after trying heaps of things, the solutions was to...

Login to the router and reduce the Router max speed to min and see if you get problems - I've found it works every time. Can increase till the problems start occuring

Here's an OUT OF THE BOX solution for some of you who have tried "EVERYTHING" and are looking for one more:

TRY TURNING OFF YOUR OVERCLOCKING. (System instability can cause ALL KINDS of problems....even this one!! (All it takes is one component in your system (that is involved in the communication process) that doesn't like overclocking to cause the problem.
