Without fail if the router was cycled off and on again, in the time it takes
to reboot (whether actually doing so or not, but it is useful to as it stops
one 'watching the kettle') the ability to resolve websites and pop3 servers
was recovered and with no perceptible difference in performance.

Though recently, for the first time, there are occasional performance
issues, sometimes resolving Google, sometimes The Register, sometimes
Portable Apps. Others resolve no problem. I think I may uninstall Comodo
firewall and put Online Armor back awhile and see if that makes a
difference. And then with no 3rd party FW. But there are literally dozens of
threads about this or closely-related (DNS resolving) issues on the Be
forums (and I doubt many of those users have a 3rd party firewall).
