Have you verified your opendns setting worked? Go to welcome.opendns.com it should say "welcome to opendns" or similar, if you get the "oops" page its still not setup right.

Only idea for the moment.

You can find it here:

In order to install it, however, you may need to install first, the Microsoft. Net 2.0 Framework, which you may find here

The install is very easy to do.

The OpenDNS executable works on my phone, but all it does is automate changing the DNS entries. On my phone at least, the Open DNS server changes DO NOT stick.

The deal is you install the SetOpen DNS program. It changes the DNS entries on your phone. You must run the executable EVERYTIME. This is NOT, however, a “set it and forget it” program. I run the program from File Manager or Explorer 2003, if you have that program. It’s just an executable. It automatically changes your DNS entries. If for whatever reason your DNS entries revert to the default Verizon settings on your phone, you must run the program again.

I think the DHCP is renewed periodically, thus the changes don’t stick but I’m not sure.

It’s kind of a hassle doing all this, however the speed increases in your web browsing, IMHO, are worth the effort..

@ gokudre

Here is that .exe file you're looking for

You might want to re-read through the last few pages of this thread to get it going properly.
