Working fine here too now.

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

All is well in G73 area of Glasgow. Full access to Google, Gmail and BBC and other sites that I couldn't access before. :)

GF has lost msn sign in, and google is now no longer working :erm: slowly dying, on a lighter note got Star Trek working.

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

yup last night google and parts of ebay failed to work for me :(

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

Better this morning, but USA bandwidth seems awful through the proxies (ok on NNTP) - but then I guess I should be used to that :(

I wonder if they'll own up to the reason...

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

Did anyone elses modems die last night or was it just me?

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

Most things working again now, but ebay still goosed.

Works fine using the proxy given on page 4 or 5 of this thread. NTL site states that the problem is still ongoing as of 1.21am....

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

No mine died as well just after midnight.. even though I had no problems accessing any sites.

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

I seem to be ok now... msn, google, bbc, ebay etc. all good. I don't want to go through that again, not while I've got listings anyway!? :eh:

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

Had loads of problems last night. I was in the middle of downloading and my connection droped. I rang tech support and reached India again, I said my connection is having problems geting connected.

He then told to type in some command in Command prompt, It was somthing like *Winsck clear* or somthing. Did that, Solved the problem.

Then the next day my connection went down yet again, I rang tech support again and got to India again, They said there was problems in the Nottingham area and wont be solved for another week. WTH a week? My dad rang about a refund on time etc and asked why it was down in the first place. A nice helpful indian women said there wasn't any problems in my area and it was my cable modem and booked an engineer.

The engineer is coming this afternoon, Finaly my problems with packet loss / droped connections might be solved today! YAY!

Wish me luck ha!

... Dont get your hopes up...

Sorry to say it, but its true - lets see how much they play 'pass the buck'.

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

Good news! The engineer has just been and updated my NTL 100 modem to a nice new shiny blue one!

And everything is working again and everything is much faster!

Good job NTL..

For once.. OO and they came in a telewest van :P

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

*shock* - seems some people get all the good luck ;-)

Glad it worked out for you.

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
 

erm... why is there no mention of this on the service status page. As a Nottingham customer I am not happy :mad:

That's it - BT, here I come (and not a moment too soon)

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?
