[Elecraft] Fios and Elecraft Website Access

I'm experiencing the same problem here in Rockville MD (also a Verizon FIOS
customer), even after the DNS flush. I found a workaround though... if I
use the Tor browser (https://www.torproject.org/). Tor routes your
connection hopping through different countries to achieve anonymity, but a
nice side effect is that elecraft.com is reached via some other providers
and not through FIOS directly.

The bigger issue persists though... hope that Verizon fixes this soon and
that Elecraft sales don't take a hit because of it.

73,
David, K3EDU
