It just freaking sucks when you call them up and say there might be something wrong. They put me on hold, transfer me to someone, do a line check and everything appears fine to them. Lol twice last week!!

ahmad: What are the DNS settings "supposed" to be??

Whatever the router gives you when you DHCP your IP address on the DSL line, it's never recommended to change your DNS provider from the one that is issued to you automatically.

@BarTender Setting DNS has been suggested on multiple occasions by different ISPs when I have had particular problems.

Hate to jinx things but stuff has been stable the past day or 2.

The little things make the biggest difference.

Obviously a DNS problem, I solved the same issue for a few friends by resetting DNS to orcon's servers or Google's public DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

I haven't been able to access http://www.wilderssecurity.com/
for the past day except via an online proxy service like fastestlane.
