ntl users can use blue yonder proxy
 

i had a look through this forum and searched all forums to make sure this issue hasnt been mentioned before and i couldnt find anything. apologies if i am treading old ground for some.

i use the proxies page from robin walker

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robin.d...trancache.html

in the past i have tried using the blue yonder proxies but they dont work. no surprise since ntl and telewest were complete seperate companies.

i tried again today and im succesfully using those proxies even tho im on ntl

i can confirm the following worked fine with me. i assume all the others will as well. i guess ntl and telewest r beginning to streamline there proxies together.

cache-edi.cableinet.co.uk
cache-wol.cableinet.co.uk
cache-bas.cableinet.co.uk

has anyone noticed this proxy issue before. that ntl users can use blue yonder proxies?

Hi stamp92 and thanks for the info.

I can confirm that the following three do indeed work with Ntl.https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2005/04/11.gif

cache-edi.cableinet.co.uk
cache-wol.cableinet.co.uk
cache-bas.cableinet.co.uk

The only problem is they don't seem to work in Firefox https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2005/04/12.gif they work perfectly fine in IE, and seem to be a lot faster than Ntl's IMO.

But Firefox just shows a times out dialog box. https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2005/04/13.gif

I guess they have expanded the authorised ip range to include ntl, as part of the merger.

Re: ntl users can use blue yonder proxy
 

We've some adjacent IP blocks, perhaps the allowed address ranges are a little larger than they should be in places.

Re: ntl users can use blue yonder proxy
 

You didn't put any ports in right? When i tried it with 8080 and 3128 it failed but without its fine...but blimey, its fast, or jesus, nottingham proxies are slow.

Re: ntl users can use blue yonder proxy
 

The swansea & cardiff proxies must be aswell then because there is a huge difference in browsing speed.

I really cant believe the difference this has made, & to be fair i had no problems with browsing speed to start with, just thought i would check, sure glad i have now though!!

Re: ntl users can use blue yonder proxy
 

all the *.cableinet.co.uk proxies work for me on port 8080

i cant get any of the proxies working through opera

im based in cardiff with an ip of 80.3.*.*

*complete ip removed for privacy

Re: ntl users can use blue yonder proxy
 

If I don't put a port in it just defaults to a different NTL Proxy, perhaps thats the speed increase you are seeing ?

None of the Blueyonder Proxies worked for me...

cheers

Re: ntl users can use blue yonder proxy
 

Yeah, you are correct ;) Stupid old proxy then ;o

Re: ntl users can use blue yonder proxy
 

Can't get any of the Blueyonder proxies to kick in form me, tried both ports 8080 and 3128, just trying out of curisosity as I can't say my browsing is slow by any means.
