I'm on DSL through Deru, and I experienced similar problems on Thursday 
evening and Friday morning.  It was frustrating because I had just rebuilt my 
firewall (the disk having crashed without backup- when I first set it up, I 
didn't know how to set up SSH, and I didn't want to bring it down long enough 
to use Ghost, so I neglected to do that) and I didn't know whether the 
problem was with me, with Deru, or the Web in general.  I was going to call 
Deru about it, but the problem appeared to fix itself.
