If you turn off the CM modem and RBR, then disconnect the RBR from the CM modem, connect up this one ethernet connected PC to the back of CM modem, power ON the CM modem, give about 2 minutes, can you access these web sites that have been giving problems?
Please post a copy and paste of the modems connection status and event log page.
