Airtel blocking Indian Broadband Forum?



Many users have already complained to me that they cannot access the forum. Now, I can see that I cannot access the forum myself if I am using Airtel’s DNS Servers.

I am pretty helpless in this case. I have sent a mail to Airtel asking them to check this issue. Though, I doubt it is going to help.

Anyways, the other way out is using third party DNS Servers… I recommend:

OpenDNS
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

Level 3
4.2.2.1
4.2.2.2

    Surprise!
    site opens now after more than a month !!

    I did not modify any of the dns settings.
    Maybe you email to airtel did the trick!!

    But i dont think airtel would have willingly blocked it,considering that it was the most recommended ISp by the members….

    You need to remember that Open DNS is not at all a proper solution – how many people do you think would play with DNS numbers (or have the knowledge) to access a site?

    well airtel dns servers are pretty pathetic. opendns servers have been pretty reliable to me. and if people shift over to them, it might make their online life a bit better. :)
