I have a netgear wireless-N 300 router? WNR2000? - me783232 - 12-19-2012 06:53 AM

I have that netgear wifi router and it works great for my ipod touch, connection wise. However, I'm not getting any push notifications. (The messages that pop up when i have something new on facebook or won something in a game or a new email) i have everything on my ipod turned on for push notifications, and when i go to other wifi places like a coffee shop or a friends house my notifications work. is there anything i can do to get these notifications. Thanks for the help!

it is a DNS issue... your internal DNS on your router is pointing you to a different location than your external address for your mail server. The iPod/iPhone OS does not support DNS rewrite with the push and it breaks things.

To fix push... set a static DNS entry for your mail server that matches the external link for your mailserver (same name and same IP address).
