Firmware is 1.0.7.62
It is an Alcatel ONT but I don't see a model number just ALCLF3AFDBOB
The cable is a CAT 5e
It also happens with EDGE browser
Have Access controls, but no Armor or SPC.
These same Access Controls were working fine on my old RAX75 router
I did change the DNS servers to OpenDNS
I also rebooted the router and now Windows Update and iTunes are able to reach their servers.

So it's working now?

I also have some problems with an iPhone that doesn't automatically connect to wifi after it is shutdown. This iPhone is on the Access Control list as allowed, you just have to manually reconnect it after turning the phone back on.

I've never completely turned of Access Controls. I did select that all devices would be allowed, but that didn't seem to change anything, so I went back to block all new devices.
