When I left for the store Saturday AM all was fine with my DSL router. When I returned Monday afternoon, no Internet at all. Router said that there was communication to the Internet but nothing happened.
The router was powered down by two switches, but not disconnected from the phone lines during thunderstorms that weekend.
After a number of tests he walked me through, we did a complete reset and a setup of the login. One digit in the PPP changed from where it was to the new setup. It was probably a corruption of one bit in the EEPROM in the router from lightening.
I did not connect your problem with mine until you posted the fix. Wonder if it was lightening or something on the Internet that did it.
[My router now has new logon names and passwords instead of the default, I feel a bit safer from hackers.]
