Its not a DNS problem, I live in plymouth too and had EXACTLY the same problem start yesterday.

Initially i put it down to the national problem they were having, phoned support, they said "plug your pc directly in to the modem", I did, worked fine again. Plugged the router back in, no go.

You know what fixed it? I lowered my MTU on the router to 1492 from 1500. It works now! i think im phoning support again and making sure i dont get charged, cos it takes the mick (25p a min!)

Edit: phoned them back, i wont be charged for the call.
