Yes, those worked well when I was able to use them, this system goes to it's
own DNS no matter what I ask it, and the DNS they provide works well most of
the time, it's just that recently I have been seeing it fail and fixing it
requires rebooting the Viasat modem.
I need to convince them they have a problem, will check more next time it
goes out.
Get someone on the horn who has a minimum of an understanding, and tell them
you can't ping their DNS servers.
