Hello Everyone!

I am having problems accessing Rapidshare.com. When ever I type" www.rapidshare.com" in the address bar and hit "Go". I get a blank screen.

I am getting the same results with IE, Firefox and Opera.
All the other sites like Google, Yahoo! etc are openning as usual. The internet access is at normal speed. Everything is okay except access to RS.com

My ISP is BSNL. My cousin's ISP is Tata ( VSNL) he is also having the same problems.

Although my friend with Sify has no problems.

So guys any suggestion ??

i just now tried using RapidShare: Easy Filehosting and im having the same prob. so solution is click on any rapidshare download link... it wil take u to the download page and from there on ur top left hand click on home and u shud reach the home page.

i have no answer as to why v cannot access rapidshare directly though

yup sorted the prob... there seems to be an issue with the html encoding... the web page needs /index.html to open... just by entering wxx.rapidshare.com it wont open. u need to type wxx.rapidshare.com/index.html

PS: xx stands for ww

to switch to open DNS servers go to control panel<<<Network connections<<<right click on your network i.e. whether it is LAN or Wi-Fi and select properties<<<then browse to TCP/IP and select properties<<< select use the "use the following IP address" and enter the values below

IP address: 192.168.1.(any number b/w 2 & 254)
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1

Primary DNS: 208.67.220.220
Sec. DNS: 208.67.222.222

these are the address of the open DNS serevers DNS servers are the servers whic are used to translate our simple language into a computer language which are a set of numbers so that computer can uderstand for eg: when you type indiabroadband.net then your DNS converts or translate this into meaningfull numbers so that computer can understand and further process your request so if these servers are busy so ultimately you will experience very poor browsing speeds
