| DNS problem I think
Well for the last couple of days my connection quits for
like 15-30 seconds. I noticed just a minute ago I could
still ping but couldnt browse. So I tried to ping their
primary DNS and it failed.I pinged their second and
it pinged but still couldnt browse. So what todo?
I looked at my modem settings and cant figure out
how to change the DNS IP's. I take it you have to
change each computers DNS settings?
Any help would be apprectated. |

| well that doesn't show drops in train... 20db down train is excellent (depending on the speed, but 20 will not cause you issues), 6db up is low but upstream isn't as big of a deal.
so if you can ping out that indicates you are connected (depending on where you are pinging). Try pinging out with large packets (like 1000 bytes) when you can't browse. If you can ping out with 1000 bytes but can't surf and then 15-30 seconds later you've got a software issue on your computer... firewall, anti-virus freaking out, etc.

| Well it went down from 9pm to 9am this morning. Hopefully
they fixed the small outages as well. If not I'll keep
calling them. Turns out it is their problem at the dslam. Funny how I turn in my comcast modem the day I lose total connection with qwest. At least comcast never lost total connection like this. Just my luck. |
