Re: ntl statement regarding recent proxy issues
 

Could be...

Some of my community sites in the Teesside area cannot be accessed by the communities they're directed at due to a proxy issue in the Middlesbrough area at the moment... nightmare!

www.inglebybarwick.com
www.thornaby.net

Are both largely unavailable to NTL users in their respective areas...

Does anyone know how long these proxy issues tend to last, I mean is there a regular update then will generally iron out problems?

cheers.

my sister got ntl bb yesterday and we had windows update chugging along at 12kB, so I bookmarked the robin walker page and showed her what I did to change proxy to get the speed maxed out.

Both sites are inaccesible though midd-5 and both are on the EV1 so it looks like the network ops have blocked access by the midd-5 IP address.

That problem appears to be resolved, although they now seem to be blocking brhm-cache-7.server.ntli.net instead.

Amazon.co.uk not working properly on Poplar now :(

I've had to send an item back for refund and the refund pages give 404 and various other errors - specifying another proxy fixes it..

This is *AMAZON*, one of the biggest sites in the net - ho hum..

I have made a file .htaccess on my hosting but found that the hosting is only seeing proxy IP number so this means anyone using the same proxy as me can gain access.

What is the script I need to make the search go to the persons IP number and not the proxy

Try something like this?
Depends on what apache modules are available on your host.

www.beelinebandwidthtest.com uses proxy ip as I found out when hitting the 10 a day limit after my 1st test, it is an amazing tester to see fluctuations between different proxies. For weeks on end all leics proxies cannot sustain high speeds, and 2 of them are under 10kB/sec.
