No I can't get the site either. Tried FF and IE. And tried several proxies. :(

Just tried it on a dialup non ntl. Works on that. Nice site. ;)

Well, I can see everyone's proxy and IP details ... suffice it to say that everyone having a problem is using an NTL connection. I would say there is a problem within their network.

Presumably then it could still be a DNS issue, if one of their servers has gone down? Only way to test that would be for someone to specify a public non-NTL DNS in their settings and see if that clears it up.

Heh, Can't trace from behind my corporate firewall.

Your site then is it? :)

Hey everyone:

It's a DNS Problem. I'm using NTL's DNS and nslookup gives this:

Note: nslookup is deprecated and may be removed from future releases.
Consider using the `dig' or `host' programs instead. Run nslookup with
the `-sil[ent]' option to prevent this message from appearing.
Server: 194.168.4.100
Address: 194.168.4.100#53

** server can't find www.thetophouse.com: SERVFAIL

From my other network (non ntl) it resolves fine.

Phil.

I used to have a very nice DNS specified that markedly sped up web page access on my NTL Broadband ... but then whoever owned it decided it shouldn't be public any more and it no longer worked for me. :(

Still, now I'm back on dial-up the whole world moves at snail's pace so it doesn't matter any more.

Re: Proxies Conflicting?
 
Have you tried specifying a different proxy explicitly from within your browser settings?

Yeh, no matter how many i try none can connect...

I'm a fairly advanced computer user, infact, im a network admin for web host, but as far as i can see, theres nothing i can change, or run to see what the problem is here.

I've tried contacting the server provider, who, typically, haven't got back to me. - The problem is, some other server at the isp are fine, and i can view them, which confuses me even more!

Re: Proxies Conflicting?
 
Hmm, second thread today complaining about sites you can't get to from within NTL. Coincidence, or a wider problem, I wonder?

Re: Proxies Conflicting?
 
DNS issue? How do the tracerts compare with and without DNS resolution to the domain or IP address? I.e. (although you probably know anyway) "tracert gladdy.co.uk" "tracert -d gladdy.co.uk" "tracert 66.197.154.165" and "tracert -d 66.197.154.165"

Just been on the phone with Dave who has been giving NTHell some grief, they have tried to tell him that his ip is banned from the server. Not true.


Best option, move to Zen Broadband ;)

Re: Proxies Conflicting?
 
Ahha - think you could be right - That site is hosting on a burst server, too..

Seems NTL and Burst aren't getting on.

Re: Can you access this site?
 
TopHouse...

I'm having the same problem with my domains, on my server inside Burst (which yours is: tracert 66.96.250.90 for the info) - Seems NTL and Burst aren't getting along today, my thread at http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...d.php?p=448943 says my problem. I kinda blame burst though - they have been fiddling with the network, adding proxies and things, so i reckon NTL's proxy is clashing with Bursts.
