    Browing problem after Vonnage

    I've got a problem.

    I am unable to browse to WTT, G2G, BleepingComputers.
    Not their home-page, nor their Forums.

    I am able to browse and log in at PCPitstop, D-A-L, TechSupportForum, ATT, Yahoo, and dozens of other sites.

    I added Vonage router and phone service last night.
    I'm presently online on the internet using only the Vonage Router (configured as PPOE).

    My ISP is ATT/ sbcglobal.net which is PPOE.
    I was able to connect from DSL Modem to Vonage router to Linksys WRT54gs by changing the Linksys to DHCP automatic to computer
    But still was unable to navigate to the above listed three sights.

    I have
    *used HostsExpert.exe to revert from MVPS Hosts File to the simple MS host file.

    *flushed DNS
    *cleared temps with both ATF-Cleaner and CleanUp 4.52
    *put What the Tech | formerly TomCoyote into my trusted zone of ZA

    I haven't yet tried turning off ZA, but think I'll try that next.

    I haven't yet tried reverting to prior setup of - modem to linksys to computer as PPOE (but I'll also try that next)

    What thoughts might you have?

    Your assistance will be appreciated.

    Turned off Zone Alarm, reverting to Windows Firewall, with no benefit.

    Good - glad you opened this. I can't get there either, but I can click on a link to a thread in an email notification and get to the thread. They have problems. I am trying to work my way back and might have to hijack a thread to get someone's attention. Stay tuned.

    I don't know what G2G is but what the tech works however bleeping computers doesn't. Until I read Bill's post I was going to suggest plugging your computer straight into the modem. It sounds like a DNS problem or a problem with their websites. If you know the IP address you can try typing that in; I forgot how to find out what that is. There isn't much you can do with server side problems. What is G2G? I was just able to ping bleeping computers so I don't know whats up.
