After upgrading my MikroTik to ROS 5.8 this morning I found that web pages web pages were not loading properly.

Firefox was giving the following error:
The connection was reset

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
I was able to load some pages by 'refreshing' the page multiple times, but even then not all elements of the page loaded properly.
I tested local and international sites. I then switched off the iBurst modem for 10 minutes and after switching on again, pages loaded normally.

While pages were not loading my IP address was: 41.56.205.203, network: 41.56.199.1.

After reconnecting and pages loading normally my IP address was: 41.56.197.65, network: 41.56.192.1.
 
Same here. Seems like a weekend recurring thing - it was the same last weekend.
Damn frustrating if I can't even access my e-mails (using Outlook Express).
No use trying to call the iBurst HelpDesk - after letting the phone rang for 20 minutes
with no-one picking up, I gave up! This just make me more determined to NEVER enter
a fixed contract with iBurst EVER again. For the last couple of weeks they constantly
call my husband to renew his contract and I just said HELL NO! It works perfectly fine
on the month-to-month and there is no way that I will be bound by a 2-year contract again.
 
Started getting the error again:

The connection was reset
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

Checked IP's

IP Address: 41.213.72.103
Default Gateway: 41.213.72.103
DNS Server: 196.2.97.124 , 196.46.70.10

Rebooted Router to fix issue and checked IP's again.

IP Address: 41.56.12.130
Default Gateway: 41.56.12.130
DNS Server: 196.2.97.124 , 196.46.70.10

Hope this helps in some way, it has been happening way less than it was at the beginning of november.
 
Happened again 5 minutes ago...

IP Address: 41.208.217.14

Restarted router to fix the problem and got this IP now:

IP Address: 41.208.218.212
 
Things are fine and then it just randomly stops working, it happened again a few minutes ago.

I have to disconnect and reconnect or restart the router to fix it.
