It was down for me, but changed the DNS from auto to custom one and it started working again. Might just be a coincidence.

Nah its only the DNS that's down. Set a static DNS to google 8.8.8.8 and you'll be grand.

Change your DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and that will get it working again. Save yourself.

What are you doing wrong? :D

Are you changing it on the PC itself, or the modem.
