Accessing the Internet Freely

At times, TM would block certain websites due to contents. I believe in a free internet. Gutterpost is one that's blocked. At one stage, there were a number of pictures related to Malaysian minister, and another Minister's children.

So, the trick is this. You must change your DNS settings. DNS is the look-up table. It takes a link and obtains the address. The address is just a bunch of numbers. If you cannot get the address, nothing shows up.

I won't go into details of how to change your DNS. There's plenty of tips out there.

Firstly, you have to select a free DNS. You can use Google's DNS servers. The IP Address for Google's DNS servers are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. Doesn't matter which set of numbers go in as primary or secondary. 

For other DNS servers, just go a Google search for the phrase "Free DNS servers". Norton has one too. 

Next, do a search on how to change / configure DNS. Example: "Configure DNS windows 7". It will give you a good picture.

Have fun. By the way, this doesn't seem to work for Celcom Broadband. They have a 'smarter' way of blocking certain sites.
