I’m having an intermittent problem connecting to the net and I would like to establish if the problem lies with my modem my line or Telkom. The last thunder storm was a bit too close for comfort, so I’m not ruling failing hardware out.
I will be connected when suddenly it will just drop off. The diagnostics tell me I have a DNS configuration problem?? (Although I haven’t touched any settings) Firefox gives the usual message “ Connection to the server has been reset....... network link interrupted while negotiating a connection” every time I try load a page.
It still gives me local access to my home network but no internet. If I leave it for a few hours or so it seems to sort itself out and comes back on line. It takes some time though and no amount of re-booting of router or PC helps while the problem persists.
Has anyone an idea what the problem might be. It’s driving me nuts!
