Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...
 

I reset my proxy setting in firefox (thankyou again, Robin Walker :tu: )

- and it works, again, that is the first problem I have experienced with nottingham transparent caching, for ages...

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...
 

Nope! The 'sotn' proxy setting didn't help me! I usually use one of the Leeds proxies as there are infinitely better than the p*ss poor Nottingham caches, but even the Leeds ones are acting up now: time outs, slow loading, constantly doing page refreshes, cut and pasting this reply cos it didn't post the first time due to a time out :/ etc!

Still, it wouldn't be NTL without some sort of problem would it?

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...
 

been having problems in oxford since friday, everything has been working fine downloads,browsing ect.,but was unable to access my own website until i changed my proxy,the problem i have with it is that the majority of my site's users are on ntl and i have spent most of the day answering calls and explaining how to change the proxy:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: at least Liverpool won today:D

No problem, but part credit to lardboy aswell ;)

Junkie, you put the 8080 in the port field, right?

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...

Normal proxy seems to be working fine for me now! (nott5)

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...
 

All back to normal here, usenet full speed and my ping is back and no lag, :p: :p: :p: :p: quake 3 freezetag here i come :) :) :) :) :) :)

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...
 

Back to "normal" for me too... :Yes:

D/L averages out at 1926/2000, packet loss around 3% :tu:

I don't care about perfect ... useable is fine by me :D :D

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...
 

Yes, I use AdSubtract which has a proxy tab and has a separate box for the port setting (which is set at 8080), I just have to put the actual proxy address in!

I keep getting 'connection reset by peer' messages, and if I use the default notts proxy (god forbid) I get 'bad request' no route to host! In fact I've never used the notts proxy as in the 4 or more years I've had BB they have never been reliable for me!

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...
 

Well nott5 is working perfectly for me right now (+ for a long time)...in fact its flying.

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...
 

Is it just me but after that outage, it has seemed to of got a fair bit quicker?
