Thanks. I was planning to use 4.2.2.1, 2, & 3 as my dns servers but was
having trouble figuring out how to make ipcop ignore the dns servers
assigned by our isp via dhcp.
I DID finally figure that out, but I'm not at the school so I can't make
the adjustment.
It's under Network->Dial-up of all places. I never would have looked
there since we are most definitely NOT using dial-up (but these DNS
problems sure make it feel that way).
Anyhow, I'm going to try that tomorrow, and if I can't get it resolved
that way, I will give pfsense a try (as per your suggestion).

Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.
