Re: lost connectivity to ISP
try to figure out if the network works at all, use IP numberic
addresses only, for example this one: 192.48.96.9 (ftp.uu.net), if that
work you definitely have a problem with DNS and creating a valid
resolv.conf file should help (you ISP should give you the DNS servers
IPs)
