I don't have that modem anymore, but I recall running something like
nslookup -timeout=3 (domain) and watching the modem intermittently
fail to resolve names.

I'd urge you to just use a real name server or get a new modem. I had
this same problem and I attributed it to the flaky modem. Qwest,
needless to say, was of no help at all.
