Mick,

Any further news from NTL on the nationwide problem and how long it will take to get sorted. Thanks.

Thought that might help some people till NTL fix their problems. :)

edit - anyone know Telewest's DNS servers...?

This doesn't work for me, I think the poxy servers also do a look up.

I used to know pipex or demons DNS addresses but can't see them right now.

Internet access fine via work VPN though!

hmm, it's something more than DNS, i'm currently using the freeserve ones that were posted and still cannot get to the BBC or ebay.

its ntl's dns I think or proxy servers but most likely dns.

specifying my squid server instantly fixed all http activity and the only problem I had other then that was msn disconnecting.

Telwest DNS serves for those who wanted them -

DNS 1: 62.31.144.39
DNS 2: 195.188.53.175
DNS 3: 62.31.112.39

No google,ebay,and lots of other sites not working for me.:(

Re: [Merged]-Major connection issues!
 
I specified my DNS settings to be 194.168.8.100 as my primary server (instead of automatically being set as the secondary) and google and yahoo worked. However, both MSN and Hotmail still don't work. Changed it back to automatically assign server info.
Also rebooted STB but to no avail.

Can't wait for it to get sorted though, I have email but cannot access it :(
