Does it happen with any site or just some?

Is not the first time I've seen an ISP having troubles for accessing 
specific websites/servers/network routes which can be only reached using 
an external proxy or another connection (i.e., by dial-up session with 
another ISP).

Give them a prudential time lapse and check later if the error still 
persists.
