When a Comcast/Xfinity rep installed a newer cable modem/phone/Wifi Router, he removed the old Wifi router and reprogrammed each wireless device to use the new wifi router. Office 2003 became DOA. When testing, the error was couldn't lookup the DNS of the mail server.
I thought the issue was the new router, but maybe it is this Windows 10 update.

Lots of odd WIFI issues with 10 for a bit now.
Cousins wifes laptop out of no where stops connecting to their FIOS router.
She brings it by and I manage to get it connected to mine. She had brought her router as well, same model and firmware as mine, I can connect all my devices, just not hers.
Connect her successfully to the other 3 routers I have running.
Sent her home with a spare ASUS router I had, been fine ever since.
I know a couple of other people who have had the same issue.
My Surface is doing this. On a fresh install reconnects to WIFI on wake, after a few weeks it will connect but can't reach a network. Need to manually disconnect and reconnect to get internet.
This has happened twice so far. Just had to do a reinstall last week and it's behaving, we'll see how long that lasts.
