1333988 2013-03-25 03:07:00 Of late I have had problem with connection.

New to me, I get, you have no DNS connection, so no internet.

The last time, I just left it for an hour, when I came back all was well.

Just noticed too, the PPP is on, it wasn't b4???

Thanks lads.

1333989 2013-03-25 05:02:00 You could add a OpenDNS server address in your DNS entries, go to openDNS.com to check it out....that's a solution, but the cause could be down to modem or router.... SolMiester (139)
1333990 2013-03-25 06:15:00 Thanks Sol.

Have changed DNS, so will see how that goes.

Same as yours.

LED on the router? I think it should be on. If it were off it would indicate you have no data connection, although you may have line synch etc.

1333995 2013-03-25 11:19:00 I've not been with Slingshot for almost 18 months now. I was *over* their slow speed issues in Nov '11 and changed. Went to HD for a bit, and Orcon... But I'm *over* these ISP's trying to offer flat-rate broadband and oversubscribing it beyond belief :( Chilling_Silence (9)

All is well at the moment, so I have fingers crossed, tightly.

I have speed problems too.
They tell me all is well at their end, so dismembering my house should sort the problem, according to some foreign get assigned to sort the problem out.

So you are now with Orcon?
