FFXI - DNS serverFollow

I've been having trouble connecting to FFXI from home (detailed here and is similiar to [ur=http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/forum.html?forum=25;mid=1153668324130564122;num=3;page=1]this thread[/url]) and have tried a fwe things and what it seems is there's something up with my DNS server. I can't connect at all at my home but I can connect other places and my internet is working completely fine at home and I can still play other games.

Does this sound like it's a DNS server issue? I tried calling my ISP but they really couldn't help much other than to give me specific addresses to use but they said I should have my settings set to obtain DNS address automatically. I'm pretty sure I have it set up to do this.

At my home, I have a Linksys WRT54G v2.2 wireless router and I've done the firmware update but I'm not sure where to set obtain DNS address automatically. I saw a few fields that let me specify the address and I put the ones I have in there but that hasn't helped much.

Does anyone have any idea how I might check to make sure it's a DNS issue or anything it might be? I know it's not the installation because I can connect on my laptop from work but not at home so it's somewhere in my POL network settings or I'm guessing my router settings somewhere.

-edit-

Nevermind, it seems to have fixed itself for some odd reason and don't really know why or how, but at least I can play again. ^^
