yeah... could be just my connection..... in diverse places on cox (and
from what I see, also on qwest). someone suggested a possible routing
issue as well (more than likely the case).
one other possible thought, the root DNS servers may not be accepting
connections from jus "anybody".
ASU's DNS servers are actually located within the qwest ip space.
I have tried other DNS servers with variable results. I might have to
break out wireshark and see if I am getting connection resets on that
port. and run some tests with my clients over this week.
anyway, I don't have enough available info to call it as a cox or a
qwest specific issue.
