Personally, I never make mistakes. I thought I did once, but I was
wrong. :-)

No problem. Keep us posted. If the default route is correct and you
can surf places NOT on your local network, then you can try our DNS
servers if you want:
64.7.192.162
64.7.192.163
We don't restrict access to them (although there are times where that
might not be a bad idea...) Sample result:
# dig @64.7.192.162 www.fedora.org
; <<>> DiG 9.2.4 <<>> @64.7.192.162 www.fedora.org
