So... my dad went out and bought a wireless router for our home network. It seems to work just fine, except...
I was browsing the web just fine, then I decide to go play FFXI for a while. When I logged off, I fired up my web browser again, but... it couldn't resolve any of the hostnames. I rebooted, and it worked again.
Afterwards, I go to bed and leave my computer on overnight. When I wake up, same problem. I can't browse the web. I can't ping any websites. But... AIM and MSNM are still connected and were able to reconnect when I logged off of them.
So, obviously the router is closing unused ports, but not opening them back up. Anyone had any experience with this router, or had a similar experience and can help me out?
