Internet trouble

[Maxx]

I seem to be having trouble with my internet. I can't get on certain sites atm. Ive been having trouble with google, ebay and amazon amongst others. Anyone else having trouble??

 

[aaronc]

Yeah same as me, cant get on to Ebay, google, and loads of others, doing my head in!

What ISP are you on?

 

[aaronc]

Ive reset my router, modem and rebooted machine, still having probs - maybe a major server gone down somewhere?

Me too! I'm on NTL. Ebay is being a b*****d! Very annoying as I'm looking for valvers

 

[aaronc]

Yeah im on NTL as well, must be a National problem.

 

[Maxx]

Im on tesco and its doing my head in :/

 

[Storm_Force]

I am with BT every seems fine my end :rasp:

Isn't Tesco run by NTL? I'm having the same issues (NTL). Looks like DNS problems, manually specifying a different DNS server should fix it. If I wasn't so lazy I'd try it myself.

Strange, my dad was just complaining about the same thing on his machine. He couldn't get on ebay or bbc.co.uk but I could get on cliosport. I couldn't really be bothered to look at it so I just told him to reboot the PC and now its working. Must have just been good timing I guess cos its working now. lol

 

[Rick]

Apparently that hasn't fixed it...

Must be an NTL proxy or DNS thats down or something

 

[aaronc]

yeah still down for me

 

[RSi Dave]

yep issues this end too

think yourself lucky, my BT connection just drops and doesnt come back for 3days. my dad blames the wireless router :S

sometimes if its a one off it may be your firewall playing up but seen as though there is a lot of you with this problem YOINK!

 

[b3nje]

and yes...tesco internet is provided by NTL

 

[BradRT]

just thought i'd add my bit... i'm with ntl and ive got the same problems too!

 

[BradRT]

ntl broadband customers maybe experiencing slow / intermittent webpage browsing due to a network fault. We are working to resolve this fault as quickly as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

logged at 9:49pm on the ntl website... that explains it!

NTL are always having routing problems, it's what they get for trying to expand too quickly and offer higher bandwith packages before they are ready to support them i'm affraid.

If in doubt, try doing some trace routes via the command prompt.
