Title: CAnnot connect to web sites other than google...
Post by: cha0tician on March 05, 2009, 04:29:49 PM
So I have two laptops (both macs) and a desktop (Vista) connecting to the DIR-825. 1 laptop connects on the 5ghz channel and the other on the 2.4ghz channel. The desktop is a wired connection.

This morning I woke up and tried accessing my email and found that on all three machines I could connect to google and any google subdomain (gmail, news, images, etc) without fail, but ANY site other than that would time out.

DNS was working as I could resolve IP's however I could not ping anything, just got timeouts. A traceroute showed drops at various points along the path for different sites so I thought maybe a backbone was down.

I disconnected the router and hooked my laptop directly into the cable modem and everything started working flawlessly... so I hooked the router back up and found the same issue.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

What firmware version are you running? Who is your service provider?
