I registered my FirstnameLastname.tel at dynadot.com
and also my UsenetAlias.tel but they just show a page not found.
Bionic.tel was available too but I don't need that.

Anyone set up a .tel page yet? :?:

I'll spend my weekend doing that LOL

You need to follow the instructions at your registrar, they provide a link to the so-called CTH panel that interfaces with the .tel registry. Once you add contact fields the domain magically becomes alive. Then you can start pondering why you bought the .tel in the first place :D

cheers, I updated my title, email, but the keywords didn't work, my processor was
thrashing at 100% and it was slow as a dog. Try again tomorrow.

Q: Why would a virtually blank .tel page be causing the browser to throttle the CPU at 100% ???

A: It's all the lemmings pushing to get through! :D

Did Yahoo already lose their domain?

Yahoo.tel

What a nightmare for TM holders.

I bought a couple personal .tel's, but the interface at Name.com seems to be down for .tel, the CTH panel.

It seems they did not create the subdomain but on the day of the launch! It takes a while for ISPs to refresh the DNS info.

In Windows, open a CMD (DOS) console and type:

ipconfig /flushdns

You might need to do also:

ipconfig /release (you will lose all active Internet connections at this point)

followed by:

ipconfig /renew

Close all browser windows and reboot.

Make sure you type it exactly or you'll flush all the DNS records out of existence and bring the internet down.

After you flush, put the seat down and wash hands *with* soap for 15 seconds, rinse and dry with cotton towel.
