Im using pppoe connection mode.I have notice at times when I visit any link, say for a reputed site like HP.com, it reports cannot find server in firefox..on refreshing about 5 or 6 times it may or may not show up the site.It has also happened midway of an online session(email). I am pretty sure this is a problem from mtnl's end as it can't be possible many sites are having server issues.Are any of you experiencing the same especially in firefox?
 
Yes, me too facing same problem at times 🙁
 
try different dns servers as mtnl are not reliable causing some sites not to open try

Use OpenDNS:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

or Google's DNS:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

still want to use mtnl dns servers then below :

Check MTU value in modem settings and try 1492 and reduce in steps of 8.
