momosan Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Occasionally when trying to visit a site I'm redirected to welcome.truelife.com even though the link is valid and the site/page is up and working confirmed by the fact that if I click the link or enter the address again it'll load fine. I thought it must be them tampering with the DNS in some way so I switched to using the OpenDNS servers but it didn't work. Anyone know what the frack is giong on?

dimthai Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Have same problem Part of the website redirected to welcome.truelife.com Any solutions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernova Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 I've seen this happen with ADSL modem/routers supplied by True. Updating the routers' firmware should get rid of it. Fair warning though, using the wrong firmware will render it inoperable (aka: bricked router). Better to go out and spend THB1,500 on a decent router.

sillyfools Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 It's with the wifi v1 routers True supplies. I hate it as well. I put my old Zyxel back instead and the bugging advertising was gone. It's just a way for them to get more people on their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimthai Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Very rude... May be I can turn this option off somewhere in routers setings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernova Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 ^ No. The site redirect is in the firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a way for them to get more people on their website. One way to combat ISP redirecting traffic to their own website is to rate it to zero using WOT addon of FireFox. So every time you are redirected to this website, give it a zero rating. http://minihome.truelife.com/welcometrue/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
