Re: Anyone in Newburgh, IN have DNS problems since last night?
And just like magic, everything seems to be working correctly again. I changed nothing to my hardware, software, or configuration, but all the problems I had are now gone. |

Yes, I seem to have problems with websites and general lag at my end. I thought it would be my wireless or firewall conflict. Wow techs are pretty clueless to begin with and I'm sure they won't admit they have a problem. I wish Insight was my cable provider, but I'm not ready to move out of county.
That's funny. I have internet now! Just in time for me to go to bed. |

Just finished all the scans and there is no malware or anti-virus on my PC that these programs could detect. |

| It started last night. Pages started loading very slowly, sometimes they would load halfway and then hang, sometimes they would not load at all and I get an address not found error. Sometimes, they load up like they normally should.
I called a WoW tech last night and she blamed it on my router. I disconnected it and ran straight to the cable modem and I'm still having the same problems. I called back this morning and the tech had me /flushdns, reboot everything, disconnect my only firewall - the windows firewall and I'm still having the problem. He said the only option at this point is that I must have spyware or an anti-virus on my computer. I'm running scans now, but I have my doubts about this because I've used Avast Anti-virus for 3 years, along with Windows Defender and Ad-Aware. I keep them all up to date and running actively.
Like I said, sometimes the pages load normally, other times, they won't load at all, other times, they load halfway and then just hang there. The one consistency is that youtube.com has not worked at all since last night, even if I sit here and pound the link, it still will not come up and gives me - 'address not found' errors. I've also tried this in 2 different browsers - internet explorer and firefox and the same thing happens in both of them. |
