There seems to have been some development on the Rogers and their unethical DNS redirection front.

I got the following from an anonymous but embarrassed Rogers employee. They bowed to pressure (many larger companies complaining that their remote workers were affected): and that even poor Edward was harassed.
Alternate DNS server that avoids the redirect:
altdns.rnc.net.cable.rogers.com
64.71.255.202
Apparently the engineers warned the marketing types... but the suits didn't listen.
Or you can try these:
dnsserverlist.org.

I can not tell you how useful this is to me - I looked around when my service got hooked up in May and found nothing about this, and felt like a doomed-to-be-redirected customer. Firefox was near terminally crippled.
This has solved our problems. Thank you.
how do you implement this? I tried to put that ip address into tcpip properties, alternate dns server and got an error message "The combination of IP address and subnet mask is invalid"
I'm told you only change the DNS server, not the TCPIP props.
Hope that helps.
Love it, works like a charm.
Firefox is back in full power.
Shame on Rogers, shame!
