Problem with Yahoo login/mail

Asked by Biplab Mallick

I am using Edubuntu 12.04. With my Broadband I often fail to open Yahoo mail/login, but when I connect with mobile network it connected easily. Now my question is what is the problem with my system/setup? Please help.

When you get connected to your broadband run:

echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf

Then try the email access and so on. Is it ok? If so, we can make it permanent.

Thanks

I have tried these, but terminal got hanged. I am enclosing the screen-shot
of terminal for your kind perusal. Thank you for your kind support.

Replying to the automated email and attaching a file doesn't work. You will need to use imageshack or similar to make a URL of the image

echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee -a /etc/resolv.conf

@actionparsnip, you forgot the -a switch ;-)

Was intentional to bypass dnsmaq :-)

Can you help with this problem?
