Hi,
I have a very weird matter since a few weeks. (can't figure out if it's due tu an update or what).
I'm currently writing from my arch laptop : so you may say my network works fine.
Exept, it only works with some sites.
I mean : I cannot access http://www.archlinux.fr/ for exampe, or many other, whereas other work juste fine.
(by "access" I mean : use a browser to see the page.)
This happens :
- on Wifi
- on linked network
- with chromium or firefox
On the other hand : ping and traceroute works fine for these otherwise unreachable adresses.
Weirder still : if I reboot on another OS, everything works flawlessly.
Another PC linked to the same broadband router will show no problem either.
Accessing the "cache" version of sites from g**gle page shows results.
I tried reboot, network restart ... now I dont' know what to try.
Here's my hardware : Laptop is Lenovo Y510
03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5906M Fast Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02)
kernel 2.6.32-ARCH
in one word : Help ! ;-)

more precisely about www.archlinux.fr : it doesn't ping. But other do, yet I cannot browse there,
example : www.lexpress.fr

Hmm, seems I solved it by tweeking with the broadband router.
(I fed it with a backup DNS, and reactivated DoS firewall)
Does neither explain why another PC worked well alongside this one,
nor why another OS gave other results.
Maybe just a broadband router inconsistency, anyway, l'll consider this fixed for now.
