It's your connect scripts that you'd rewrite, nothing to do with getting them (your ISP) to change their settings. How do you connect? Is it a command? If so, see if it's a script, and see what other files it refers to. You should find something that lets you customise things. If it's your DHCP client script that resets your DNS servers, then customise your DCHP client configuration file. -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
