MN-500 and "Unable to Connect"

I am using MN-620 with a DHCP ISP provider (T1), I keep
getting "cannot connect to server" errors on at least
half of the pages I visit. When I click the refresh
button, 95% of the time the page will load, but it is
very frustrating having to refresh everytime. When I
disconnect the base station and connect via the ISP I do
not get the problem as frequently. What do I need to do?
I have verified the IP Addresses both with and without
the base station in the picture and they are the same -
where expected at least.

I have applied the latest firmware. When I run nslookup
microsoft.com I get the following;

*** Can't find server name for address 192.
*** Default servers are not available
Server: UnKnown
Address: 192.168.2.1

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: microsoft.com
Addresses: 207.46.250.119, 207.46.130.108

The IP addy (192.168.2.1) is the IP of the base station,
is this not correct? Any help would be appreciated

Go to the computer you signed up with the ISP, and get it's
MAC address. Then clone the address into the MN-500.

Also, run a tracert to the domains you are having trouble
to reach. This will show where the slowdown is -- normally
you should see times in 100's for each hoop.

BTW, the "default servers" are never available for the
router on the MN-500 -- so this is normal behavior.

Thanks for the info, but how do I get the MAC address, I
know it should be in ipconfig /all but which line item is
it?
