Urgent 4.9 networking problems

[Dave Raven]

The original ip 186.3 sets the broadcast - any aliases after that must have
a /32 broadcast as they are aliases... That's correct isn't it (rest of
list) ?

Also - my connection is from 186.3 anyway, and those ip's are all
functioning correctly.. 

I don't think that's where the problem is

Thanks
Dave

I don't disagree with the other posters that mentioned DNS timeouts, but
in addition those broadcast addresses aren't right.  Since all the
addresses are within the same /24 subnet, they should all be .255 (which
is the default, so you wouldn't need to specify them.
