Problem accessing some websites?

Is anyone else having a hard time getting to some websites? There have been a few this evening, but I can't get to www.NorthJersey.com and www.theknot.com.
Utilizing a proxy both websites come up.
Ping and tracerts appear normal.

Been having problems all day. Switching DNS to 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4 (google) at the router hasn't seemed to help much.

I had switched the DNS locally on my PC, versus the router. But the VZ DNS issue itself now appears to have been cleared up.

I've been using the open DNS servers for over a year and never had one single problem or outage. The Verizon ones would always act up at least once a week for me, so annoying.

We started seeing the issue in Lower Bucks PA about 7 PM on 1/2/2014. By 9:30 PM I called tech and was told they were aware of the issue but were not going to log it as an outage therefore no ETA on the repair. Go figure?

Just had a bunch of VZ Fios and wireless users in the FL area that had an issue this morning. If they changed to 8.8.8.8 it worked fine.

I'm in the same area as Sparky and mmclaren, and I've still got some weirdness going on. Nothing like before, but some spinning wheels trying to find sites.

I been having issues with a couple iptv boxes that I have. Streaming live TV service some channels not where they suppose to be or not there. Woke up with this happening. Yet speed tests normal.

Yes, it appears that things are back to normal now in lower Bucks County.

May not be related but I was upgraded, from 25/25 to 50/25 at the end of Dec. While speed test pings are in the 10 - 12 ms range and the tested speeds are over the advertized numbers, I've seen that web pages take notably longer to load than they did when I had the slower service. Pages that used to load in 1-2 seconds now take 5-6 before they start to paint the screen. Once the repaint starts, it is very fast.

Additionally, I have a Samsung smart Blu-Ray player that is running the FiOS TV app and it now buffers and hangs, quite a bit (every 10 - 20 secs), when watching HD content. Before the upgrade, it would only happen every 15 - 20 minutes, if at all.
