Re: Messenger, TeamSpeak etc will not connect (Tamworth / Lichfield issues ?)

Well, I have binned NTL's DNS's as they seem to be one of the major problems, without DNS the core of the internet falls flat on its face.

And if this is happening all over the place then I'm afraid the th'internet will crumble.

Since swapping out the DNS's I seem to have a stable system. However friends who are on the NTL stream (which was once a flowing river) are suffering much like you, I will keep monitoring things this end.
