My internet is kinda slow, any help is appreciated

[SpeedZealot369]

I have cable internet, connected to one computer and then with a router connected to my 360 and my other computer.

On my second computer, the internet is getting really slow lately, and when I try doing the "repair" option it says "Can't clear the DNS cache"

What does that mean?


Thanks for any help in advance

what happens when you open a command prompt and type ipconfig /flushdns ?

uhh go to run ( in the start menu then to the right side), after you click run type in "cmd" (without quotes) and then when another window opens ( it should have a black background) put in ipconfig/flushdns

The proggie is malware-free. Basically what it does is "tweaks" your cable settings for maximum performance.

It says "could not flush the dns resolver cache: Function failed during execution"

? What do i do.


Also, will reseting the modem fix this? If I ahve to do that once in awhile to have no issues thats fine with me.
