I am getting very frequent "cannot find the site" and long waits "looking for www..." while surfing the web. This has been off and on for months. I thought it was Comcasts DNS, so I switched my DNS to use google's free ones (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and that seems to clear it up for awhile, but then it starts occurring again. I've switched back and forth and it's hard to tell what the problem is. Any ideas??
If you are wireless I have had similar problems especially after a thunderstorm. I just reset my modem and router and all is good until the next event.

eta: I'm with Comcast and maybe we just found a common link that it's not my wireless router but the modem.
eta: Good thing I can almost read the difference between Quote and Edit.
I think it is a Comcast issue. It is frequent, but intermittent, so resetting the modem or anything else I do *appears* to resolve it, but very hard to tell.
