I noticed this about 3 days ago.....

Microsoft MN-700 Router hardwired into the cable modem and my rig. My website (and subsequenly every other site hosted on the same server) stopped responding. Some examples: http://www.aphexii.com, http://www.revolutionhost.com, http://www.ossenbeck.com

Checked all the settings, firewall, IE, Firefox etc... everything seemed fine...

So i unplugged myself from the router and ran the ethernet cable from my rig directly into the cable modem. Repair connection. Tada, everything works again.

Bad router i think. Ok, so i went out today and bought a new one (D-Link DI-624). Repair connection once connected, bam. Nothing again.

Flushed DNS, checked the settings, repaired connection again, nothing. I seem to be able to get to every site EXCEPT anything hosted on the same server as mine (as far as i can tell).

Just to check, i bypassed the router again and it works...

WTF is going on? If it helps any, i either get the alert "www.aphexii.com could not be found. Please check the name and try again." or the MSN search page.

Ok, now im really f-in confused.....

Can't find the server on my laptop either (connected wirelessly through the router).

Is the cable modem doing something here?

 

[JeffMD]

sounds like you just dont have the right ports fowarded? who host your DNS as well.. do you? Are you running your own name servers?

What happens if you try to reach the server via IP address only?

Try out [L]http://67.18.35.13/[/L]

Looked at the cable modem's logs and noticed this; repeating nearly every minute throughout the entire log

2005-01-02 22:35:19 3-Critical 0x040D9A2C DHCP WARNING - Non-critical field invalid in response.
2005-01-02 22:35:09 3-Critical 0x04E33948 No Ranging Response received - T3 time-out

I can get there just fine using IP's

http://67.18.35.13/~aphexii/

works.....

hmmmm

EDIT: now its not, everything is dead on that IP for me.

So you can't even ping the IP?

 

[aphex]

http://67.18.35.13/~aphexii/ (the username of aphexii.com) works again now... and i can ping the ip

However; none of the other sites do; http://67.18.35.13/~jivedonk, http://67.18.35.13/~oso

etc...

This is so confusing

 

[aphex]

Ok, well i can get to some other domains on mine server now.... http://www.revolutionhost.com

But still no love for http://www.aphexii.com, http://www.pyromaniax.com, http://www.ossenbeck.com, http://www.jivedonkey.com, http://www.loisandmarty.com

Why in the world would some of them work and not others?

 

[aphex]

Lovely, i called D-Link and RR

RR: Sorry, if it works plugged directly into the cable modem, there is nothing else we can do.
D-Link: Sorry, if you are able to connect to the internet, it must be the website, not the router.

Grrrrrr

EDIT: I FIXED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But can someone explain to me WTF it worked?

I dropped the MTU down by 10 at a time (default was 1500, i dropped it to 1480) and it works perfectly....

What changed that would make it need to drop?
