That is the correct IP.

That is not the correct IP resolution according to google's DNS.

That is, www.centos.org resolves to 85.12.30.227 but 85.12.30.227 does 
not rDNS to www.centos.org

However, 72.232.194.162 rDNS to www.centos.org which does not resolve to 
72.232.194.162

> their TCP/IP world seems messed up somewhere within their DNS records -

The DNSreport on centos.org says the MX, SOA, WWW, are all OK but the 
Parent nameservice fails on one dns report but not another.

Parent	Failed	Parent nameservers centos.org	Your NS records at the 
parent server are:

Failed	Nameservers for domain in DNS centos.org	Your NS records at your 
nameservers are:

However, my dig worked OK showing ns1, ns3, & ns4.centos.org and their 
IPs and all 3 nameservers produced the MXes etc.

The report at mxtoolbox said the ns at the parent was OK, but then the 
information said it was not.  I don't understand this inconsistency in 
the parent DNS status for centos.org.

YEAH - this is one weird DNS situation -
I'd like to find out what eventually turns out to be the problem with the 
DNS,
but this discussion is all over the map with various tangents regarding the 
orig problem.

Reading all I can of this thread (maybe not all because off my newsserver is 
not 100% reliable) I followed the diving into the routing and the protocol. 
AFAIS one cause has been overlooked so far: An intermittend hardware error. 
To me all results so far point in that direction. Suspect is all hardware 
between your computer and WISP. Shortest way to find out is exchanging all 
parts of it one at a time, including cables and power supplies. The logic 
behind it looks like obvious to me. All that equipment is similar to that of 
your neighbours but the latter has no problem. Your computer has no problem 
when using it too. So your equipment itself or the place or way it has been 
installed may cause that peculiar problem.

It is hard for me to see how a hardware error could cause troubles with
ONLY centos.org. Remember that he says that he can  browse almost all
other web sites, even during the months that he cannot browse
centos.org. It is really really hard to imagine some hardware error that
would be that selective in its application, and furthermore one that
allowed the packets to reach the penultimate link on a long chain and
then fail on that final link. 

He has certainly been aware of your possibility, but has no idea how
that could explain the symptoms. Perhaps you could explain how, even in
the wildest of scenarios, this could explain his symptoms. 
And if it does, how he could figure our WHAT is wrong.

This reminds me of a problem I encountered with a system using a
RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller.

Every once in a while, it would stop connecting to some sites, while
still working for other sites, and I could still use ssh to access
the system.

My nephew suggested rebooting the system. I explained, this was a
linux system, and wouldn't make any difference. After arguing a bit,
I rebooted it to show him, it wouldn't matter. To my surprise, it did
clear the problem.

That system is using a 50ft cable to connect to the router. My current
guess, is that some packet is getting mangled, some of the time, and
when it does, the only way to clear the problem, is to reset the pci
device, by rebooting the system.

Restarting the network is not enough. The system has to actually be
rebooted.  I suggested changing the wiring, and moving the router
so a shorter cable could be used, but the owner has chosen to just
reboot the system, whenever this happens, typically about every
other week.  This has been going on for a couple of years now, with
multiple kernel updates during that time, and no change in behaviour.

So there are cases where a hardware problem will affect some sites,
but not others.  Without disassembling the firmware, I have no
idea what the nic is doing, so I can only confirm the observed
results.

Well, I agree. It's very hard see how it may happen. Nevertheless, the 
impossible never happens and hard to see is not impossible. In a situation 
like this I'd want to rule out the possibillity that the error is caused by 
my own equipment somehow. It's not only the pure hardware I think about. I 
consider the firmware a part of the hardware in this equipment. I have some 
experience maintaining computer equipment and I several times saw 
unexplainable errors disapear by exchanging parts or equipment that seem to 
have nothing to do with it.

*If* the cause of the problem has been located in this part of the path, 
there's a question left that may be next to impossible to answer: How does 
it happen? As the OP mentioned that's the most frustrating part of the 
problem.
