A few people have contacted me saying that they can not connect to mcompute.
If you're reading this i'm guessing you can connect either normally or via a proxy. If someone tells you that they cannot connect, i'd appreciate it if you pointed them to this thread.
Step 1. Clearing your DNS.
Under Windows:
Start > Run > cmd >
Under Linux:
Terminal >
If you're still experiencing problems it's because you're using n00b DNS servers from your ISP. Stop it.
Step 2. Using custom DNS servers
Log in to your router (I made a tut on this ages ago), and change your DNS servers to:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
These are Google's DNS servers and they're a lot better than your ISPs.
Also, if you're looking for updates in the future when you can't connect either visit twitter, or http://markwood.co.cc as they'll both be updated with info. (My domain more so.)
