Thank you for the feedback. In my opinion it is not a DNS
issue. The following tests were done a few minutes ago:

   PING www.google.mu (172.217.16.99): 56 data bytes
   --- www.google.mu ping statistics ---
   19 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss

   PING www.google.mu (196.27.66.173): 56 data bytes
   64 bytes from 196.27.66.173: icmp_seq=0 ttl=61 time=1.906 ms
   64 bytes from 196.27.66.173: icmp_seq=1 ttl=61 time=2.040 ms
   --- www.google.mu ping statistics ---
   2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0.0% packet loss

Over the last two days I noticed some issues with
www.google.mu. Those issues would not be noticeable if a person is
not familiar with troubleshooting internet-related issues. I can be
wrong; that's why I ask other people to verify the results I get.
