One of the Frontier techs gave me the ip no. for Frontier.yahoo.com - their web portal. Interestingly enough I could ping it Tuesday, but not Wednesday or today.

Wait, you said if you plugged directly into their DSL modem it
"worked", that is you could get to the internet.  Is that true or not
true?

When (if) that works, say loading Google or something, what is the IP
address on your device?
