Comment(by ardsouza):

 I used to face this problem earlier but flushing the DNS using "ipconfig
 /flushdns" worked for me. Since the last few hours, even this didn't work
 for me. Now, I changed the Pager server to 66.163.181.173. This did the
 trick.

 So far so good. Need to see how long does this last.
