Prolem Surfing the Net

[freezer]

Hi People,
I use proxy server to surf the net but the problem is that I can't download anything beyond 1- 1.5 MB.
When try to download such files then suddenly the download stops in between and it says whole file downloaded.
Also I can't watch streaming audio and video.
Some error like "DNS error" appears.
Please tell me whats the solution.

I don't use any download managers.

Well dont try proxy then! Check direct internet connection first,
coz proxy server is also a machine which manages thousands of connection. So to prevent system overload the admin may have limit its transfer capacity!

Ok for DNS I suggest flushing DNS,repairing DNS !
coz DNS might be corrupt!

[anomit]

Use this command:

C:\ipconfig /flushdns

for flushing DNS resolver cache

I tried to flush DNS but some error comes
"Unable to locate server. This server does not have a DNS entry. Please check the server name in URL again and try again.

man... freezer.... u r already in an proxy... AirTel GPRS dont give Static IP... then why do u want to use a proxy... as AirTel GPRS is not fast as the CDMA data connection... & proxy will going to slowdown ur system a lot....

better go without any proxy...

If the customer care doesnt know then who wud know

BTW why dont they know since ur using a proxy that wud have been given or be used by them also.

These customer care blocks are only just for the heck of it...

Freezer Guide for u to cofig ur system...

1st off all the phone setings... now its depends on ur hand set... well try to delet its connection & make anpther or just send a sms request to the airtel service no. to send u an ph config based on ur model....

2nd thing for ur computer.... delet all connection releting AirTel GPRS... deactived the proxy, if possible thenuninstall.... now i hope u r in XP.. though all the windows r almost same to config....
Go to Network Connections & creat a new connection.... next to connect to the internet, then ste up connection manualy, connect useing a dial up modem, ISP name can b AirTel GPRS, phone number to dial is *99***1# (confirm from customer care..)... & user name is ur ph number (in this format 919xxxxxxx) & the leave the password blank...

now connect without ur proxy & get back....

& i realy dont understand why a ISP would requeard a user Proxy....
