I know that the website will connect if I can get a longer searching time. How can I lengthen that connecting time?

Are you getting a connection Reset error? What exact Error message are you getting or problem are you trying to solve?

See http://drewthaler.blogspot.com/2005/09/changing-dns-query-timeout-in-windows.html

Try to modify this Multi String registry key:

  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\DNSQueryTimeouts
  • Multi String: "1 2 2 4 8 0" -> "4 8 8 16 32 0"
