Free advice if you need it
As of 10:00am this morning (12/1) my cable modem appeared to go out, but on closer examination in turned out that the DNS servers that I was using were not working. I reconfigured to those I used to use when I add a phone connection and everything was OK.
Maybe a coincidence, maybe not.
Obviously, if you are having the same problem, you are likely not reading this, but if you know someone who thinks they are down, try pointing their web browser to:
http://64.58.76.228
if they get to yahoo.com, that their problem too.
