EBay website not accessible

Question

In the last couple of months, suddenly I am no longer able to access the "EBay" website while working on my wireless router. I have 3 personal computers, a laptop, 3 android smartphones & 2 ipod touch's. They all work fine, from my wireless router.
I have the WRT54GS ver. 6.
The problem started with not being able to access EBay. I called the EBay people. Then, I called my local Internet Service Provider. There were at least 10 phone calls, to each. Then, I called the Linksys people. The lady told me that I had an outdated router and that I needed to get a new one. Well, I had previously bought the most expensive one I could get, said it was for "optimum" movie & gaming from Cisco. I used it for a few days, and finally quit with it and took it back to the store BECAUSE IT DID NOT WORK NEAR AS WELL AS MY OLD OUTDATED WIRELESS G ROUTER WITH SPEEDBOOSTER!!
The Linksys/Cisco lady told me my equipment was old. But, the newest stuff can't hold a candle to my old one, according to my location, service, etc. My old one works like a CHARM!!
The thing is though, there were no changes made, but suddenly, it would not access EBay. It simply says on the screen "Internet Explorer cannot display webpage". There are NO connection problems. And, then yesterday, there is another website that it won't bring up. So, is this going to be a habit?
When I take my android phones off of using my wireless, and they use strictly the AT&T data, I can get on EBay fine. But, when I switch the phone back to using my wireless router, it won't pull up EBay at all.
Please help!!

I hope I am doing this right. I called EBay I don't know how many times. They said they have not had any one else calling with that issue.
I called my local internet provider. Loads of times. Finally called Linksys/Cisco. The lady told me that I had to pay her to talk. II can't do that. But, she would at least listen. She told me & my local internet provider assured me & still claim it's problematic from my Webroot security stuff.
Today, I decided that I would just turn off the Webroot stuff, just to see. So, I turned it completely off, and it still won't access EBay. I have access for an XBox 360, a PS3, 3 PC's, a laptop, and they all are doing this. The 3 Android phones we have do this as well. You can take the phones off of using the wireless router, and they will go to EBay. Put them back on using the wireless, instead of using data, and they can't pull up EBay. And, now, another website, I think it's www.islandimportsandmore.com - it won't pull it up either. So, I'm hoping that one by one, it's just going to start not accessing sites. The Linksys/Cisco lady told me my stuff was outdated and that's why it wouldn't work. But, it works awesome. Just will not bring up EBay.
