More info. According to a Verizon tech I just finished talking to, the
modem is also the router, and 192.168.1.1 is it's IP address. The modem is a
Westell VersaLink 327W and I have reset it in the past while discussing the
problem with Verizon techs.

DOHH. Of course, a combo modem router.

So look in the router status page ("http://192.168.1.1";) and see what the DNS
servers are setup as. And since owner-fb633300e is picking up the DNS settings
(ie same DNS server twice) from the DHCP server (the router), check the DHCP
settings and see if the dual entry is in the router DHCP server.

When you were talking to Verizon techs, did you mention the dual DNS entries?

Chuck:

Talked to a Verizon tech again. He had me reset the modem since the current
user and password for the unit were unknown.

Modem numbers are:
Currently the IP address is 71.113.9.129
Primary DNS 68.238.128.12
Secondary DNS 68.238.64.12

I just checked ipconfig/all and both the primary and secondary DNS IP
address's are still 192.168.1.1

Apparently, the owner-fb633300e is not picking up the current DNS IP
address's from the router. (beyond me)

I told him about the dual DNS entries and said it should not be a problem
since the DNS servers are supposed to be automatically detected.

Hope this information helps.

Regards,

Dan
