Cannot connect to some websites from Verizon (but ATT gets there just fine...)

So, for the past 24 hours I have repeatedly tried to access a blog (ginandtacos.com) via my Verizon connection; Verizon returns an error message that they are unable to find the site. They offer some alternatives from a Yahoo search that includes... the site I want. I click their link, they report they can't find the site, and offer some alternatives from a Yahoo search... (rinse and repeat).
Switching to my ATT-provisioned phone, I can easily access the site, so it is not down.
Any ideas?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Answering my own question...
Not a Verizon issue. The site owner asserts on Facebook that Network Solutions is holding the domain name hostage (and trying to blame ICANN). Apparently the whole thing will be fixed just as soon as some additional marketing services are purchased, or so he says.
ATT shows the same failed DNS resolution now. sigh.

Cannot send or receive email using Thunderbird, but can get it just fine on Verizon server.

Every time Mozilla/Thunderbird does a major upgrade I have a problem with sending and receiving my email. When trying to send an email, I get the message:
"An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: 5.7.1 Missing or literal domains not allowed. Please verify that your email address is correct in your Mail preferences and try again."
Using my regular email password, I am able to get my email from the Verizon server just fine. It simply will not work with Thunderbird. Every time there is a major upgrade I spend hours and hours with Verizon techs with them trying to figure out what is wrong. Yesterday was one such day and we looked at EVERYTHING and no reason could be found for the problem. The tech concluded that the problem had to be with Thunderbird and that I should re-enstall it!!!! I don't have time to reinstall it! Somehow it has been fixed before but we don't even know how.
Please HELP!!

TS4123 I cannot connect to ITunes store from Windows Vista. Get unknown error (0x80092013) message but am network connected. Diagnostics say not administrator, but am. No LSP. HELP!

Network connection IS active. Network connectivity test confirms, but shows Secure link to ITunes store failed. Tried help from diagnostics but get message that help is unavailable because computer isn't connected to internet (but it is). Diagnostic details show current user is not administrator (but is). Details show basic connection to the store failed. Tried all the "helps"/solutions I could find-- ie flush dns, No LSP except Bonjour, firewalls, etc. and still can't connect. What can I do????

Must have Admin password for the OS system to know you are Admin -
that error is known for eventually having to either
1 Unintall reinstall itune or
2 Reinstall Windows

IPhone 4 wi-fi connection disconnects after a few minutes, but used to work just fine.

I got my iPhone 4 a few months ago. During the first few months, I would come home and connect to the wi-fi in my house with no problems, and it would stay connected until I left the range of the router. Just two days ago, I was starting to have some issues with the iPhone: I would open an app, and it would run just fine for maybe a minute, then black out and go to my home screen. If I tried to open the app again, it ran normally. Trying to troubleshoot this problem, I restored my iPhone to its factory settings, keeping my media and data. Now when I come home and connect to my wi-fi, although my device does recognize and connect to it, the connection stays for maybe 5 minutes before the phone switches back to 3G, unless the wi-fi is being actively used from my phone. Every time I want to use my home wi-fi I have to go to settings and choose a network. This is an inconvenience for my, especially since I never had to do this before; I would always stay connected. I have a feeling that I may have messed something up when I restored the phone, yet I do not know for sure what happened. I have tried restoring my network settings, restarting my iPhone, toggling the wi-fi and cellular data on and off, and turning my router on and off again. I don't think the router is the problem since everything worked before I restored my phone. Also, all of the other devices in my house that use my wi-fi work perfectly. The only thing that has changed is my phone, and I do not know how to solve this problem. Any help and information will be greatly appreciated.

If it makes you feel any better, I run networks for a living, and am having the same problem without a fix when outside the house.
When I am at home, I can get a really good signal, it stays on the network for more than a few minutes, but if I am in a coffee shop or something like that, it drops. So it is either the Access point (bad location) or an older 802.11 standard they are using (probably a g) that does not support that many connections. Or a more finicky problem that is going to require a future patch to address...
iPhones are finicky about where they get their wifi from, sometimes to excess, especially in a saturated environment... they are always looking for the strongest signal, which leads to access point hopping if two or more in proximity...
if multiple WAPs are unsecured and broadcasting SSIDs, the iPhone will try and switch back and forth between them looking for the stronger signal. In a busy city, or a coffee shop with multiple WAPs on the same network, the iPhones can play havoc. (Supposedly Duke University has a ticket with Apple because two iPhones dropped their whole wireless network access point hopping).
How i got mine to stay solid at home was to get a linksys wireless N router, not broadcast the ssid and have the iphone connect (the SSID was case sensitive to the iPhone, but not to anything else on my network... weird). In a busy environment, I would recommend putting all but the strongest signal on ignore... a pain but helped me so far get at least more than 30 seconds of wifi connection.

I try to log into my itunes account on my laptop and it says cannot connect to itunes store, however it does on my iphone just fine

i have made a seperate itunes account and it logs in as well. so i am not sure what is going on. i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, i have turned off my computer and back on. i have ran it as a administrator. i am running windows 8 on a toshiba satellite.

What troubleshooting techniques have you tried? Have you restarted the app? Have you restarted your computer?
One idea is to Trash this file; Mac HD/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist and restart.

Can't connect to some websites but internet is working

My internet is working but I can't connect to some websites ( various university) when I disconnect the time capsule and connect directly from the modem then it works. Internet provider said it was a problem with my time capsule...
I restored to factory settings and unplugged/ plugged 100 times. Even created new network.
Don't know what else to do...
Anyone out there with a similar experience??
Thanks!

Hi, barcenas. Welcome to the forums!
Check your TC's DNS settings. Try using 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. Does this allow you to connect to the websites?

I have recently updated to ios6. But safari browser is very slow ,even twitter, Facebook also facing the same problem also cannot accsess to some websites too.

I have recently updated to ios6. But safari browser is very slow ,even twitter, Facebook also facing the same problem also cannot accsess to some websites too.

Try these basic troubleshooting steps.
Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or .... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
For Safari ..... Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

WRT54G v6 - Cant connect to some websites

I cant connect to some websites using the WRT54G v6 router, at first I thought it was an MTU issue but ive tried 1400-1492 to no avail. I also tried everything on the Linksys website for the issue at called "Encountering Difficulties Accessing Some Websites when Connected to a Linksys Router"
Another strange thing is that while one site may not work for awhile eventually I can get to it but then I cant get to another one. At first it was google and slashdot, then it was gametab, now its gamespy. Everything was fine on my old router fyi. Im using the latest Linksys firmware v1.01.1. and im connecting to the router by ethernet cable, not wirelessly.
Ideas? Suggestions?

Open "Network Connections" and then right click and select "Repair". Run the network setup Wizard in XP again, shut down all pc's and do a power cycle.
Hope this helps

I have a white Macbook 2009 on OSX Lion. It came with the OSX Snow Leopard CD, I erased the HDD and am trying to install the OSX from disc but am getting "cannot install OSX from disc" message. What can I do?

I have a white Macbook 2009 on OSX Lion. It came with the OSX Snow Leopard CD, I erased the HDD and am trying to install the OSX from disc but am getting "cannot install OSX from disc" message. What can I do?
I got the macbook from a friend a few years ago and it already had OSX Lion installed. Whenever it boots from the Snow Leopard disc it says it cannot install from disc. Is there anythingI can do or should I take it to an Apple store to get them to boot OSX Lion for me?

Insert your Snow Leopard disc and restart, press and hold the C key as soon as you hearthe startup chime, hold C until you see the Apple Logo. When your computer starts up you'll be at the first install screen, choose your language and click the arrow to go to the next screen. This screen has a menu bar, from the Utilities menu select Disk Utility, select your hard drive, this is the one with the manufacturers name or numbers, click the partition tab and then delete any existing partitions by selecting them and clicking the minus. In the drop down box select one partition and click apply. Name your hard drive and click erase. When it's done quit DU and go back to the installer, install Snow Leopard. When the installer is done and the computer is back up and running run Software Update to get to 10.6.8
