[Merged] Manchester Proxies.

swoop101 · 23-02-2004, 22:03

When did the buggers re-install the Manchester proxies?

Netools shows I am now on cache4-bagu.server.ntli.net

No wonder I have probs getting to some of my fave sites

noticed that i've got my proxy back tto

Last few days I think but I havent seen any problems so lets see what happens.

I noticed about a week ago that browsing was strangely slow, and looked and there were the proxies again - They appear to be different hardware this time, and lets hope that they can cope with the demand better

OldGeezer · 26-02-2004, 20:45

Shucks - I hadn't noticed they were back.
Let's hope it stays that way

Not proxied here yet

Already had problems the other morning was able to use MIRC, MSN ICQ or anything through the internet aslong as I didn't try to surf webpages none would load. They was working again a little later in the day. Lets hope it was just a hiccup and not the proxies showing they are not reliable.

As said before if you have problems call your local franchise director

I did post a link to some *free proxys* you could use on the NTL service a few weeks back (before i formatted my hard drive to re-install xp pro) unfortunatly i cant find the post to re-post the link again as the link is handy favourite to keep if you have any NTL proxy problems.

thats a good idea but these proxies are supposed to be bomb proof design according to some of our NTL friends

I found the free proxy link 8o)

I think good information & links should be kept for future reference instead of getting burried.

iadom · 26-02-2004, 22:40

Still proxy free here,

for the moment

The proxies have been back up for a while now (at least a month), well for us down in Stoke anyway (cache4-bagu...) keep having to change proxies away from the default every now and again as browsing goes to a crawl.

I went to a site i wanted to download something from. They only allow a certain number of downloads per IP (for obvious reasons) per day.

And it said: Sorry 62.252.192.4! Only 10 downloads per day!

Please visit us tomorrow.

WTF? That isnt my IP. So, I make sure I have no proxy set in IE. I don't.

I then said...OH NO, surely ntl havent turned default proxies on in Manchester (war coming up, i see it now)....

The proof of the pudding came when i checked a proxy lookup.

Oh no....
