Strange routing problem - Replacing Westell with 1760...
Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to replace a westell 7500 dsl modem with a 1760 Router that has a WIC1-ADSL card in it. The connection is now stable and I can now ping outside IP addresses from the router and from internal clients.
However, and this is STRANGE, only certain websites are pulling up. For example, I'm able to pull up google and gmail, but not techexams's website. I can ping it from both the router/client and the browser is stating "Website found. Waiting for reply..." but it never pulls up.
I'm doing nat with overload and can view the nat translations with
show ip nat translations
I'm replacing a westell 7500 dsl modem/router which works just fine.
When I remove the Cisco and put the westell back in place, all pages pull up and everything is fine.
I feel as if I'm missing something small here... I'm not running any routing protocols.
If you have a moment to glance at the running config below, I would GREATLY appreciate it.
Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
Your Cisco friend,
Paul L.

If you can ping then I doubt its any kind of routing issue. Are you sure DNS is resolving correctly? Could be something with MTU also.An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made. -

Don't have time to look at the config, but I'll just ask what your arp cache looks like -- are you're using an interface as your default route next hop (forcing you to arp for all external addresses) or are you using a next hop IP?:mike: Cisco Certifications -- Collect the Entire Set! -

I've actually seen the scenario you're talking about caused by MTU issues with ADSL. Specifically when using a cisco adsl router and hardcoding the MTU to be different than provider recommends.
Try the no ip mtu under the dialer int and see how you do ( if I remember correctly, this is a default command and won't show up in the running config)
interface Dialer1
ip address negotiated
no ip mtu
ip nat outside
ip virtual-reassembly

dialer pool 1
dialer-group 1
ppp authentication chap callin
ppp chap hostname newdsl
ppp chap password 0 newdsl1

So if your clear your DNS cache on a client and ping any website, you can accurately resolve the IP, but when you try to surf to some pages, it just times out?
That's weird...?
I ran into similar issues lately, but I was using an ASA 5505 and Westell DSL modems, not an ADSL WIC. -

This is a very common problem on PPPoE DSL Networks when using a device that isn't configured to automatically determine the MTU (PATH MTU). The problem is due to the overhead involved with network transport that chops down the available MTU size.
Here is a decent summary of why it happens..

Mississippi Guardsman... you are the BOMB!
You can definately tell that you are a DSL guy!
The two commands that fixed all my issues were...
no ip mtu
setting on the dialer interface
...and the command...
ip tcp adjust-mss 1440
on the LOCAL ETHERNET CONNECTION.
The link you posted for...

Glad you got your MTU issues cleared up. I had never seen that before until I worked on a customer that was using a Cisco DSL router instead of our SOHO DSL Gateway that we normally use and he was able to surf some pages but not others. I have learned so much since I started working on provider networks. It can be fun...but when they call you at 3 in the morning because some redneck decided to dig up your fiber with his tractor...it can really suck...but hey you learn either way. Glad we could help ya!Cisco was my first networking love, but my "other" router is a Mikrotik...
