I have tried cutting over to the new line but DNS isn't propagating very quickly like it usually does.

The changes have been made and I'm keeping a close eye on it. Still on the old line until that propagates correctly and I'll cut over to the new line.

Thanks!

Update:

A new modem will be needed. The modem they gave me cannot have the firewall 100% disabled :(.

It was my fault!!! I should have tested the basic things first before doing DNS changes...

Live and learn... Never again will I make that stupid mistake!!

Update:

New modem will be here tomorrow. The modem that runs the site now is the NVG589 and they are sending a new NVG599 which is the same thing but with better wifi.... Don't use that function anyways so here's to hoping! :)

Thanks!

Update:

New modem is in!!! I'm doing EXTENSIVE external testing with port scanners to verify the ports needed to run EVERYTHING are open. So far so good!!!

Will port site over to the new line a little later this afternoon! :)

We are 100% live on the new fiber line!!!!

I just figured out now too that the firewall I have won't support speeds greater than 200MB/200MB.

A new firewall is needed which will cost quite a bit so it will come in time! For now 200MB is still more than most people have to download anyways! :)

Thanks!
