SIGH! I haven’t been able to access any web pages for the last day and a half. I found out I could still ping IP addresses though (and Ultimate Sigh is still online). So it seemed to be a DNS issue with TPG. I called them and they were of not much help. Basically told me to reset the modem (which I had) and reset my computer. Then they said all they can do is charge me for a technician to come out if it still doesn’t clear up.
Fuck that. I put in Google’s DNS (8.8.8.8) and I can resolve host names again. Basically TPG fail!!! I think if I had stuck with their support suggestions, I wouldn’t be surfing web pages until next week or even later if I had to pay for a technician to come out, even though I don’t think the problem is with my line.
SIGH! The world is full of SIGHS.
