need favour from you guys.
 
Hi guys,
Recently roughly two months now, I cannot load www.malwarebytes.org.
I have a WRT54GL router, Tomato 1.25.
I previously had 1.23 then upgraded thinking it was a firmware issue.

Direct internet connection to the modem was okay so I do not think it's SHAW's end.
So anyone who has a router, or preferably have Tomato installed to check and see if the URL loads.

Thank you.

Loads up instantly for me. Does it load when you're directly connected? Maybe try doing a factory reset on your router (hold in the reset button for 10 seconds).

Does it work from other computers? What happens when you try to ping www.malwarebytes.org? Does the name translate into an IP address?

Two other computers in the household cannot load malwarebytes.org.
I reset to factor settings, even upgraded to a newer Tomato firmware.
I cannot ping the url nor the IP given. However, I can traceroute it.
My host files are perfectly fine, I used HJT and posted the log and I do not have any malware.

Have you tried changing the DNS server settings? Maybe try pointing to a different DNS server, like OpenDNS': 208.67.222.222 or 208.67.222.220

^ I went to the Tomato settings Advanced->MAC Address. I selected the Random button for both WAP Port and Wireless Interface then saved. Now I can load www.malwarebytes.org.
That also seemed to have changed my default DNS (and my IP).
I have been using OpenDNS from the start, but I guess it never worked till a MAC change.... ?

Thanks.
