For some reason, I can’t reach many places on the Interweb, including CNN.com, Google, mail servers at Apple or Comcast, etc.
I did have some kind of fluke on my Comcast network (was it just a day or so ago that I said I have no complaints about them?) causing my public network interface to lose it DHCP lease, and nothing I did could get it back. I suspect something has gone south in their network. Not that I can go anywhere to find out . . . . .
Inbound traffic seems to be unaffected, but any pages that load content from places like Google or Amazon (that means all of them) are slow to load.
