Some reason I've been experiencing sporadic random DNS lookup failures on Orcon the last few weeks - anyone else hit this?

At one point, I couldn't get to geekzone - got a DNS lookup failure (ERR_UNKNOWN_HOSTNAME) and then after an hour or two it just corrected itself

router and PC rebooted during the outage, no change

Latest today is that around 0754 this morning, suddenly the ability to reach Gmail was lost.

Disconnect from Orcon, switch to Phone tethering and it resolves immediately, switch back to Orcon, it fails.

Anyone else experiencing these ghosts-in-the-machine? So far nothing else I've tried during this outage is failing

Thread jacking aside, we're not aware of any widespread DNS issues at the moment, so this could be isolated

However I would be interested to get into a bit more detail with the OP if possible, so we can just make sure there's not something weird going on.

Please drop me a PM (with your orcon username) and we'll take it offline.
