Ok good info here


What i have is the cable modem to a router to my system, which is the only computer on it presently.

computer IP 198.168.15.100
default gateway 198.168.15.1

DNS 209.18.47.61 and 62

my systems working today but previously when it's gone down i've pinged my gateway successfully but not the DNS

My cable modem indicator lights sometimes will indicate no connection but I can unplug it and it resets and works fine after.

I just pinged 4.2.2.2 with no problems What is that site?

Next time it goes down i'll know try pinging all those sites. If it's the DNS I should be able to plug in ip numbers directly into the browser window is that correct?

Can the DNS server be hijacked and changed in order to montor or redirect your surfing?
