The issues you were having sound outside the scope of simply domain resolution (IE, turning a name into an IP address). DNS issues generally manifest themselves as the inability to connect to a name, but IP addresses work fine. That doesn't help you fix the issue you've seen, but I'd be careful about assuming it was just a DNS issue.

All I know is what the computer told me. My network connections icon would balloon with the message that there was little or no connection. I would bring up the connection and try repair and it could not because it couldn't renew the IP. I would uninstall the Ethernet card & reboot to let windows reinstall it (I'm on Local Area Connection 6) Everything would be fine for a while and then the something again. I have since reconfigured my modem to a static IP (OpenDNS) and everything is working fine, so it not being an IP issue doesn't make sence to me. Then agian, I know very little about this stuff!
