[10.5x Snapshot]Troubles when trying to reach Google
I don't know if it's really a bug, but it's quite strange.Every once in a while, I cannot reach any Google-related site (Google itself, Gmail, Youtube, ...). I get an error "Could not connect to remote server"
After a while, it comes back to normal. And then the sites become unreachable again. It happens without me doing anything particular on my connection or my computer. Rebooting the computer does not fix the problem.
I've installed the same snapshot on another computer, and the same problem occurs.
Note that on both computer I can reach the sites normally with Opera 10.10
Config :
Ubuntu 9.10
KDE 4.4.2
Opera 10.52 Snapshot 6273

A little update : it seems that the problem changes on a daily basis.
On April 6, impossible to reach Google
Yesterday, April 7, everything was working perfectly.
Today, April 8, the problem comes back.
If it works again tomorrow, I'll seriously start to wonder if the problem is not related to whether the date is even or odd...
[EDIT]
I've cmy connection parameters to use OPEN DNS instead of my default DNS server, but it does not change anything. So apparently the problem is not DNS-related

Its mostly ISP related here, I have problems reaching Google with FF, Chrome and Opera here.
Opera 10.10 on Karmic x64.

Problem came back today.
Same message with www.gmail.com, www.youtube.com, maps.google.com, etc...
No particular problem with any other site.
Again, it only affects Opera 10.5x snapshots (I'm using the latest snapshot). Opera 10.10 and Firefox ARE NOT affected.
The fact that the problem comes and goes might be ISP related, but the problem itself is definitely 10.5x related.
Any suggestions on what I could do to identify what is causing the problem ?
Thanks !
