I had that happen with an ISp I paid six months in advance for
excellent rates. The DNS set in my Genesis was not theirs, and caused
faulure until Iset it to find DNS. They weren't paying their bills and
were changing DNS server address almost daily until they suddenly went out of
business and disappeared without a trace. They probably went to Las
Vegas or ST Moritz, laughing all the way.
I don't suggest yours is about to do the same. but it does sound as
if they have changed DNS server. Not all ISPs use their own.
