There is a "key" in there called Timerwheelsize and its default value should be 11. You need to click on this key, and change the value to 5. I am not sure how you do it in your specific program, but i cant imagine it is too hard.
When you are done with that you can close the program.

Then, you want to do this from your regular home screen.
Go to Start, click Settings, hit the connections tab at the bottom, click Connections, then hit Manage existing connections. you will edit the one named Sprint PCS most likely. So click it and then select edit. Click next, then next again. When you see "Advanced" click that. At the bottom you will see "Servers", so click that. Then select "use specific server address" and put in this:
DNS: 4.2.2.1
Alt DNS: 4.2.2.2

I hope that clarified anything you didnt understand.

it doesnt get much more step by step than this. read the thread before posting

Using wifirouter after the mods. Didnt do a test before though...

Well I just did a bunch of tests with the standard and the manual dns numbers. 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2
More or less all of the tests came out to be the same.
I am running the latest No2Chem's Rom.
In fact the standard Sprint connection
was more consistent than the manual DNS.
Sprint around 1800 while the manual DNS 1500-1900 but varied quite a bit.

Does anyone have any experience with the speed of the other DNS Servers listed in one of the first posts.

Thanks.

DNS servers have nothing to do with throughput speed. Switching DNS servers will only provide a faster translation from a domain name to a IP address.

Yeah essentially it means a better DNS server could improve web browsing speed, but nothing else Internet related.

Think of it this way. I have 2 neighbors (Bob and Joe) and I ask each of them for directions to the store. Bob answers my question in 1 second. Joe takes 2 minutes to answer the same question.

Neither's answer speeds up my car's engine to get to the store. However, Bob's faster response let me leave earlier.

Hope that helps.

Also, I'm lookin' for the reg entry for Alternative DNS. Anyone out there know?

[koilmaker]

Please excuse my ignorance, but my Mogul is on Bell. Would I use the same DNS server settings as Sprint??????

I dont think so, but some reassurance would be nice.

Thanks...

awesome find, increased my upload to 300+ didn't do much for my download, but latency with the off sprint dns servers is completely minimized! thanks Mike!
