Jam at Ziggo internet so you get back on your iPhone, iPad or Mac – One More Thing

Internet provider Ziggo for the second night in a row plagued by a failure . The provider is struggling with DNS problems, allowing customers to surf hard and apps unusable. The good news is that you yourself can do something about it.

The DNS servers are attacked and Ziggo are down, but you do not obliged to use it. Ask other DNS servers, and you can surf again and use apps. We explain it step by step.

What is DNS?

DNS Servers are the phonebook of the Internet and make the translation of domain name (eg: onemorething.nl) to the underlying IP address (eg 46.23.86.64). Many companies like Google have their own DNS servers that can use everyone. Set it and you’re back online.

Following the failure

your failure is over, you the same way again restore the DNS settings for the servers of Ziggo. These are automatically put off when you manually entered address. Rather not Google? You can also use OpenDNS (208.67.222.222).
