Paul, here it is again ok i have had a connection for about 45 minutes No problems. open a new tab, go to a site, and firefox sits there and does nothing. But on the current tab that I'm in, i can browse the page just fine. open the terminal and pinged my router ok. tried to ping google reply of unknown host. Is the google site experiencing problems or is it just me? the page that I'm currently viewing in Linuxquestions.org, and can browse that entire site without a problem, as soon as i try to leave it, i get the super long looking up what ever url I try. e.g www.google.com So is DNS messed up?
