Hey everyone,

My earthlink dsl service has been acting up lately. It was fine last night, but when I got home today everything went wrong.

First my router kept saying "authentication failure", and long story short I found out I had to change the PPPoE username from username to username@earthlink.net

Next, I used to get assingned a dynamic IP somewhere in the 4.XXX.XXX.XXX range. Now, I'm getting all different kinds of IP's, which somehow are owned by Verizon (I checked on arin.net/whois)

Last, I've been hosting a personal mailserver at home, using dynamic dns service. That stops working too. I even tried a portscan at grc.com and it says port 25 isn't open....(so I'm guessing they're blocking port 25 now?)

What the heck is up???

Thanks
