I have had the following problem twice this week.

1. My internet connection could be made only to a specific site(wenxuecity.com and its subsites),
and all other connections were denied with a message "Server not found".

2. Not even the Window Defender's virus definition could be up-dated then.

3. All devices, three PCs and one smartphone, were having the same trouble at the same time.

4. It lasted 3-5 hours and then disappeared. The same problem reappeared in a few days.

I have been using a 15-year old Motorola cable modem and a low-end TP-Link router. They seem to 
work just fine before.

What caused the problem? What might be a quick solution? I tried the power-recycle of the 
modem/router, but it doesn't work. Haven't tried to re-set the router yet.

Pls help. Thanks.

先换个security好点的router/firewall,用不了几十块钱还能提高网速的。

现在还不用DOCSIS3.0 modem,损失肯定是你自己

My internet plan is only 15/1 mps...why would a 3.0 modem help?

Any maker/model recommendation? Thx!

cable是share band(同一巷子或同1block里)。3.0前modem只1个通道,高峰会被被挤掉/或延迟很久
