services work, google, gmail, google maps etc, this forum works and some
other sites aswell. but websites like microsoft.com, digg.com, yahoo.com
and loads of others websites wont work, i dont even get a response when
i ping the websites.

i tried IE8 and Firefox 3.0 bot it makes no difference atall, tried another dns
server, but still no result ;_;



does someone know how to fix it ?
Using a router? If so, what brand, model?

Thomson SpeedTouch 780WL(i), and that is/was also the problem. I flashed it with different firmware versions and got different results everytime. i bought me a
Sitecom 300N XR router & PCI card and all works perfectly now.

what worked for me

i know i had that same problem and i fixed it by setting my MTU and enforcing the use of that MTU value through my routers settings. You can visit speedguide.net and use their tcp/ip analyzer to check for MTU value recommendations
