I thought about that too but the OP said that it was working for a while and
then locked up. That's why I suggested the test from the WS.

Stuart,
I would do a test to find out if it is the router or you SBS that is
causing this issue. Reconfigure one of your workstations for testing.
Change the DNS on that workstation to an outside DNS (i.e. 4.2.2.1) and
see if you can recreate the issue. If you can't recreate it, we know that
the problem is your SBS box.

Just checked. When dns stops working, I can still ping outside ip
addresses.

Thanks Claus
I've done as you suggest and still problems. nslookup works fpor a
short
while then queries get timed out. I can't successfully use ip addresses
in a
browser. I can vpn in to the router from outside. I think i can ping to
the
outside world but I will check again

Yes they do get replaced when you run the CEICW. Go into the DNS
Management
after you run the CEICW, add the 4.2.2.1 (or something other than
your BT
ones) and move it up to the top. Do you still have a problem
afterwards?
Another question: When the problem starts, can you still ping by IP
to the
outside?

Thanks Claus. The forwarders seemm to get cleared out by CEICW and
replaced
by the entries you make during the wizard. So yes they are fine.
Stil
having
probems though.

Your configuration looks fine. Did you check the Forwarders? How
about
adding a DNS that isn't part of BT? See if you can reach 4.2.2.1
and try
that as the first in the forwarders.

Thanks Claus - ipconfig for a client below. Internet access very
poor
now -
have to run CEICW to reinstate. Never loose the router
connection.

At the moment I do not see a reason for reinstalling the DNS.
Post an
ipconfig from one of the workstations and make sure that your
ISP DNS
servers are entered in the Forwarders.
If symptoms still show up, rerun the CEICW.

Thanks for your reply. I think I have that already and I have
made
no
changes. IPconfig server results below. Router automatically
picks
up
its
DNS
servers and DHCP is switched off.
Do I need to uninstall and reinstall the dns server in SBS?

Your SBS should be the only DNS in your LAN and all
workstations
should
point to that. On your SBS DNS you enter your ISP DNS
servers under
the
forwarder tab.
Also, if your router is doing the DHCP, turn it off and let
your
SBS
handle
that.
See if that resolves your issues

SBS2003R2 with a number of WinXPSP2 clients. Draytek
router with
firewall.
One NIC set up. Router is connected to ADSL & ISP's WAN
quite
happily
and
uses ISP's DNS servers. SBS server set up correctly and no
recent
changes.
I
keep losing web access even though router remains
connected. If I
run
Configure Email and Internet Connections wizard, I get
access
back
for
a
period of time, then I lose it again. Rerun Configure
Email and
Internet
Connections wizard and back in business. This works if I
chose
the
same
dns
servers sometimes, but always works if I swap them from
the
choice I
have
(BT
Broadband). Any ideas most welcome.
