The plot thickens. I'm beginning to wonder if it's actually my ISP after all. I just had another outage where I was not able to load any websites, but other web services continued to work as normal. During that "outage" I attempted to connect to my Netgear router using the usual 192.168.1.1 IP address... nothing. no connect until web access (being able to connect to websites) returned. Then i was able to log into and browse my router config.
So... nothing has changed in my router config prior to this problem appearing. It's the same config I've used for the last 2 years. On the PC side, I've recently added a new hard drive and done a clean install of 11.1 using the defaults... clean /home as well.
It's looking likely that the problem is inside the local network (all of 2 computers)... but where to look next? Hmmm this is an odd problem.
To be sure, try adding OpenDNS, which is free and fast. The OpenDNS nameservers are 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. --- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
