It seems like the subscription allows him to contact the ISP's DNS server. His router would have gotten DNS server info from the ISP. And now he's just simply lost the ability to communicate with them.

Edit: It's weird that you can still connect using IP addresses despite not paying the bill. What happens when you use a custom DNS server?
