Re: [DSL] DNS issue with Focalprice.com ???

I've forced a refresh on that zone on all our DNS servers. It appears to be working fine now.

The issue appears to be that their NS servers are extremely slow to respond...but either way it's fixed now.

I've been having the same problem for many weeks with the Focal Price site - and all their links on their email newsletters. It's still happening today (Dec 22nd) This began for me right after I switched to TekSavvy from Bell. I do not have this problem via 3G (Wind mobile) or at work (Bell). This is kind of alarming that my ISP is somehow (inadvertently?) blocking me from a specific site. Not cool at all.
Any more info on why this happened and continues?

Its a DNS issue that is solved by using google DNS, for whatever reason it doesnt play nice with teksavvys dns.

It's also not working on Teksavvy DSL either. There's definitely an issue with Teksavvy DNS tonight, I was also only able to access DSLReports by the IP address and several other sites were also failing to resolve in the past hour.

Well it's not working for me.

nslookup www.focalprice.com
Server: dns.pppoe.ca
Address: 206.248.154.22

*** dns.pppoe.ca can't find www.focalprice.com: Server failed

That's without www... with www it's a CNAME pointing to another domain
and the iproot.com domain and their authoritative name servers are the source of the problem.
