Jan,
The first IP address worked fine for me. I did not try the second one though. You can give it a try yourself. Go to the command prompt, and enter this: nslookup [ENTER] server 193.189.224.2 [ENTER] www.yahoo.com [ENTER] The abovementioned DNS server (193.189.224.2) will then resolve the domain name specified at the prompt (www.yahoo.com) for you with some comments. I tried this from my regular Internet connection from work, meaning that my default DNS is something else, of course.
