After spotting what could possibly be the new STM timescales, I'll not be far behind you mate.

I have some big problems with routing in the M44 area at the moment. I can't access my server in London. When I do a tracert it stop at hop 12 for synergynetworks.co.uk. I begrudge picking the phone up and paying money for someone to tell me to restart my modem

I'm the same. I just keep having to flirt between proxies that shouldn't make a difference but very clearly do.
:(

Try setting the DNS to openDNS that mnight help if VM DNS is messed again.

Thanks, but I used to use OpenDNS but oddly, it just refuses to work for me lately.

I'm also OL4, was having major outages and slow net, before I was put on soft disconnect (should be back soon :P)

What's 'soft disconnect'?

(That rain's coming down hard isn't it? ;) )

They removed my net access but not emails (that's what CS said soft disconnect was)

& yeah, 'twas, seems to have calmed down a bit now though.

"however this can be subject to change"

Is this work still scheduled? The net in the evening has been virtually un-useable. Pages failing to load, long delays - even took 3 mins to load up VM Status Page tonight. I used to be able to have a few tabs open in Fiirefox browsing away but I haven't had the luxury of that for a good while now.

It's ...It's..... :td:
