RE: Weird PING/DNS issue

Where is your router getting it's dns servers from? Are they the
correct ones for your ISP? Ask your ISP for a list of their DNS servers
and perform nslookups against them to see if you get the same results.
Open a DOS command window:

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\chrisb>nslookup
Default Server: dns1.cross-check.com
Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

server 205.171.2.65
Default Server: resolver2.qwest.net
Address: 205.171.2.65

godaddy.com
Server: resolver2.qwest.net
Address: 205.171.2.65

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: godaddy.com
Address: 97.74.104.201

Everyone I've talked to, even neighbors on the same service, are not
seeing this issue. The guy at my ISP was very helpful and even he said
things looked fine. I just can't think of where else to look, as it
seems my router is doing something odd. It's a linksys wrt54g running
DDWRT firmware.

We had a similar issue week before last except the problem site was
webex.com. Turned out the problem actually was our ISP.

I'm having quite an interesting day today with a certain website.
It's not
my site (oh heck, it's godaddy.com's site).

PINGs to it seem to be resolving to the wrong IP address. From my
iSeries, and all my PCs. I've checked all my hosts files, etc and
there's nothing there. The only common denominator here is my router
and my ISPs DNS servers. So I'm not sure where to look next.

I've tried using online PINGs and those resolve to the correct IP for
godaddy.com. I've tried using anonymous surf tools, and they all
work.
But
from any PC or and my iSeries they all resolve to the wrong address.

It all started last night when I would get their homepage just fine,
but any page after that would error out. Now today, I get this weird
page that looks like 1/2 of a PDF viewer
(www.stoneip.com/temp/test.jpg).

I know there are a lot of network gurus on here, so I'm desparate for
help and apologize in advance if this post is out of line. I just
don't know where to look next (calling my ISP is my next step).

Any other site seems to be working fine. Just Godaddy.com is
resolving to a completely wrong IP address. Tried a neighbor's PC
today on the same ISP and seemed to work fine for them.
