With the local roadrunner business class DNS addresses. (I've got the teleworker package, since I need a fixed IP to run a server off of here at home as well.)

I'll check the router as well, but I thought I had it hardcoded as well. Maybe not. I'll have DNS for a while, then it goes flaky for brief periods (often just long enough to screw up one website) then work for the very next website I try, while still leaving the first one I tried mucked up.
