DSL Modem/ Connection, hosed? or just need to tweak?


Lee Yokum

Recommended Posts

I've attached my modem logs as they currently are, seems like tonight its especially bad, I've been concerned lately with the overwhelming number of "DNS Query failed" entries they seem to be almost flooding the logs at times but these other errors are completely new and I've never seen them on in the logs before. I have tried changing the modem to use the google public DNS and Ive tried using the ones that our ISP auto assigns, it seems to have no bearing on the DNS issue. Our connection seems to be unstable at times, I don't know if the whole thing is hosed or if there is just some setting that needs changing or what but i'd rather take my chances here than bother with our ISP's support, its a small , local ISP and they are about as helpful as a .jpg is to Helen Keller.

 

Any help or ideas as to what the !@#$ is going on would be greatly appreciated

Google DNS has been litterally 100% reliable for me (Google Public DNS IPs are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 in case anyone needs that info - make the changes on your router so it will be global to all clients resolving to the router IP for DNS) - I'd normally suggest that... but you've tried that.  So I guess I can't blame the other DNS server.  <_<

 

What operating system?  What ISP?  Are only some addresses not resolving?  Is it intermittent?

Yea love that hellen keller reference lol

 

The ICMP warnings appear to be caused by something on your network (possibly internal yet doubtful due to the DNS errors) sending data to no real address. This would account for the DNS issues if it were coming from your ISP, which as you state is having issues.

 

However if I remember correctly the error " kernel: OAM loopback response not received on VPI/VCI 0/35 " explains the connection is down at the ISP end. The vpi/vci 0/35 - circuit is hopefully the correct one.

 

I might change the VPI/VCI circuits to the following ~

Make sure I have correctly found your provider as "telefonica" before changing.

 

As I understand this will be a secondary channel for doing many "things" the ISP might need or want to do.
