According to the "Check Connection" diagnostic report (at the time): Ethernet = Pass ASDL= Pass ATM = Pass PPPoE = Pass Authentication = Pass IP = Pass DNS = Fail
Thanks for having a look at the problem.. |

The "DNS = Fail" message may be misleading, if you know a web site address like: 209.123.109.175 typing 209.123.109.175 will display the website of www.dslreports.com
The modem may be doing a dns lookup on a url that is no longer working |

'Didn't try entering numeric addresses, did try everything else, manual input of add, favorites list. BTW lights on the modem during the incident: power=green, ethernet=green, dsl=green, internet=green, activity=not lit at anytime even when trying to access--no indication of activity. |
