Do you know what DNS stands for? It's Domain Name Server. In other
words, it is a server at your ISP that translates nemonic web addresses
into IP addresses. For example, you type http://www.dnsexample.com into
your address bar and the DNS translates that into something like
192.34.76.2. So if you are getting DNS errors the DNS at your ISP is
defective or not getting updates correctly from the network.

It's not my ISP. The routing is being blocked, and so is DNS traffic.


Maybe THEY'RE afraid of the USAF! Just to double check, is this the
address you used: http://www.af.mil/



Anything with af.mil in it fails to work.
