I have started to have a very strange problem since yesterday. 6 out of every 10 websites I try to open doesn't open for me, including this forum. Some other websites include http://chat.yahoo.com, http://www.timeanddate.com, http://www.whois.sc etc. but these really are very few examples because if I do a search for anything on google, out of the 10 sites listed at once most fail to open completely or get stuck in the process of opening.
I have tried all DNS servers I know of in all possible combinations. I even @n@1yzed the network traffic and observed that all the URLs are getting resolved but the websites themselves aren't loading. This can also be determined in a simple way by observing the messages that appear at the bottom-left sides of mozilla/firefox. When it's connecting to the DNS server it displays a message "Looking up " and then it displays "Connecting to " on a success. In my case it gets stuck on the message that comes next, "Waiting for ".
It is just failing to fetch the content from the websites even though it is succesfully connecting to them and requesting the content. Very weird problem. I am totally out of ideas. I have complained to Customer Care, got a complaint number and got an @$$urance that a Sify engineer will visit me. Let's see.
Any of you guys know of any more Sify DNS servers other than 202.144.115.4, 202.144.66.6, 202.144.50.4 and 202.144.15.30 for me to try out? Even if it's not a Sify DNS server could you drop it in?
I forgot to mention that this problem ceased for a while yesterday night and I was able to access all the websites. But it's started today again.
