    Post Some router problems?

    I just got this from a fellow user at www.pcmech.com
    Here is an interesting story for everyone. My ISP recently changed their feed from Sprint in Ontario to Sprint in Alberta. Ever since then, there have been a few sites that I cannot reach. I know these sites are up because friends on other ISP's can reach these sites. The one that I miss is http://www.windrivers.com . It has always been my best source to track down drivers. Well, to make a long story short, I, my ISP, and several other friends and clients have been trying to get on Sprint's back to correct this. A trace route shows the request gets lost in San Jose California. Since I cannot reach "The Driver Guy" I was wondering if somebody could forward a message to him to see if he would be interested in helping by nagging at Sprint from the other end. Or, if anybody here has any "Sprint" contacts, to forward this on to them and get things back on track.
    Thanks for your help!
    Anything you guys can do?
    I know I'd be lost without windrivers!

    Question

    Try changing the DNS search order, just because when you ping a sight, then it shows that you have 100% loss packets at a certain sight does not mean that its a sprint problem, it can be the Headend @ sprint, your ISP, A problem with a NODE here or there, Did sprint change DNS did your ISP adjust for changes that sprint made? try using a different dial-up number! is any one having the same problem? perhaps the dial-up number you are using has to many people using the same number, again, change dial-up.
