Flushed the dns and restarted the computer and it didn't fix it. I then tried to reboot the modem and still no joy.
I am using a laptop and connecting to the Internet via Verizon Wireless using a Jetpack Mifi modem/wireless router.
Not sure if turning the modem off and on is considered rebooting the modem.The MS diagnosis suggests that if its a battery run modem/router (as this is) to then reset it. I'm a little afraid to do that right now until I can read up on what resetting does to my Verizon Wireless setup.
I did wonder if it was a Verizon issue so I tried the site on my Verizon cell phone and I was able to connect. So that might suggest it a modem/router issue.
Anyway thanks to everyone and if you have other thoughts I would be happy to hear them.
I forgot to mention that. The direct IP didn't work (either before or after the dsn flush and turning the modem off and on.)
I have turned the unit off and taken out the battery and the SIM card and still no joy.
Maybe its some security setting that is blocking the site? I'm running MS security essentials which hasn't been a problem in the past. But maybe some browser setting could be blocking the site?
