23 Thank you for your help but that not very useful for me, that is another way to connect which I can't use because he use some ISP parameters which I can't replace.

25 When modem locks if I ping google.com I just get an "google.com unknown host" but if I ping google using it IP instead it name (ping 64.233.167.99) my computer sends packets correctly but doesn't recieve response from google. So it is a DNS problem but I have the correct DNS of my ISP in /etc/resolv.conf
