Are you sure your connection was all the way down? I was cursing my Comcast connection and started doing some testing - my internet connection was fine, Comcasts's DNS servers were just slow! I switched to OpenDNS for my DNS services, and also set up a local caching DNS server as part of my M0n0wall firewall and my internet now blazes right along.
