Hey guys, something is wrong with my mac. Every few minutes every website has a 'page load error' (firefox) and you have to keep clicking reload (or wait around 30 seconds) and then it works again.

Address Not Found













Firefox can't find the server at [domain].







The browser could not find the host server for the provided address.

* Did you make a mistake when typing the domain? (e.g. "ww.mozilla.org" instead of "www.mozilla.org")
* Are you certain this domain address exists? Its registration may have expired.
* Are you unable to browse other sites? Check your network connection and DNS server settings.
* Is your computer or network protected by a firewall or proxy? Incorrect settings can interfere with Web browsing.
Thats the message I get on firefox. Its the same on safari.

Im not sure whats wrong, my imac is connected to my router via ethernet, and my laptop which connects over wireless does not have this problem (its on windows..?)

please help :D thanks.
 
Sounds like the DNS thing again.

Set your DNS in the Mac to 208.67.222.222 & 208.67.220.220
 
thanks mate.. I've tried that, I'll get back to you on if its worked. thanks!
