I’ve tried pinging my ISP’s, Google’s, Comcast’s, they all time out. I’ve run the gauntlet in cmd as well, I’ve \/flushdns and \/registerdns, I then tried pinging Yahoo.com and then \/printdns. Still, no cure. I even attempted booting I to safe mode to see if that would perhaps fix it, but no such luck, I was still unable to ping the address and was unable to access the internet. I tried seeing if the firewall was perhaps blocking it, so I turned it off and it did nothing. I saw a *very* similar thread on here about 5 or 6 years back about a guy who had essentially the same problem and got it fixed. Someone mentioned ISP’s block DNS packets because of DDOS attacks? But that wouldn’t explain Google and Comcast’s unless if they block them too. I installed the telnet client to see if it would help ping DNS servers but to no avail.<\/p>\n
The DHCP server’s ip address is: 192.168.0.1
\nDNS server’s address is: 97.64.183.164
\nDefault Gateway Address: 192.168.0.1
\nWhen I typed the gateways address into my browser it did indeed take me to the router manufacturer’s website. Something new that didn’t pop up before when I typed in ipconfig \/all is “lease obtained” and “lease expires” then dates and times following. The date for both was today and the time for obtaining this lease was 3:38:36 pm and the time that it expired was 3:47:41 pm. What does that mean, this worries me. It is currently 3:57 in Central Time where I am.<\/p>\n
