Posting this for Lungs.

TL;DR: He's having issues with his internet connection. Certain things work and others don't, which is bizarre. Some things that worked got cut after he reset his router.

‎11‎:‎15‎ ‎PM hmmm, it seems to be randomly eating packets once in a while, in my ping to google's ip basically stuff that works:

‎11‎:‎16‎ ‎PM 1. Ping to Google's IP, 2. Skype

stuff that worked before I reset router/modem:
Facebook Chat, Gmail.


stuff that doesn't work (so I know it's not an https/http error thing)


apple's game center on ipod (logged into apple account)


basically it stalls at "looking up ...."


‎11‎:‎17‎ ‎PM so I think it might be a DNS error


but I can't imagine why


because it just happened. all of a sudden, out of the blue.


okay I just took away ip address control from my router


and it didn't make it any better.


but skype still works

Amusingly enough, Lungs tried that like 10 minutes before you posted it and it worked briefly. Will get an update from him later.
