More Liverpool Problems?

Hi,

I was one of the people affected the other week by the drop out on particular websites due to a bad route from VM.

Now last night at around 1210am the internet dropped out. I tried to get onto 192.168.100.1 but to no avail. The bottom light just flashes on and off periodically.

Tried this morning and no joy.

Phoned home before and still no joy.

Is this another Liverpool issue, i.e. has anyone else experienced this drop out or an issue specific to me?

I'm asking as I know stuff like this has happened before..

The past few weeks the service I've had has been diabolical :-/.

Ya, I'm in North Liverpool. Could be the same thing. Oh well. I'm still not getting 100% connection on Yahoo Messenger either...

If it isn't up tonight, I'll give VM yet another call and see what I can get sorted... *Sigh* lol.

I've just been on the phone with them because i can't seem to access this site www.valhallagaming.net or the GTA server IP, it seems all other sites are working although they're slow, according to the guy i spoke to (After 15 mins of me askin him to check with the network team cos he kept saying it was my computer) he went to check the status and apparently the issue is just affecting the northwest, some main cable is down and they don't know where it is so some websites won't work until they fix it. It sucks, but thats all they said

If l am not wrong, wasn't Liverpool hit very badly when the final of The X Factor, last year, on VM, when it lost all services for six hours, l don't like to say it, but that show show is now on, this is a major problem on cable services, and when it goes down, surprisingly, the FULLY trained engineers cannot find the fault, and with all that latest techo about.

Well, last night couldn't get a lock for signal at all.. Now I have a lock for signal but the websites are pretty poor.. Just generally slow.

Phoned Virgin numerous amounts of times last night. Got a new modem and a Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£10 discount, so can't complain. I didn't even ask for the discount!

Yes, according to them there has been quite a big problem with a server.

I'm in South Liverpool and it's been a god awful connection for a week or so now. Gaming is next to impossible, and sometimes google/bbc sport don't even load!

philyb · 25-09-2008, 12:07

Awful, sort it out Virgin. Had important e-mails to send, and it took me half an hour.

Same here, but in Manchester. Had no internet access since Tue - absolutely ridiculous.

See http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/12...own-since.html

Cheers

Yup. I spoke to my brother, work colleague and we're all experiencing the same.. I'm more just glad I'm not alone... That means more than likely something'll get done in my experience LOL.. Just when is the question

johnlfitz · 25-09-2008, 14:07

It has to !!

Can't bear to think that I'll be without internet access for 5 days !

philyb · 25-09-2008, 14:25

Its been ok today for me, but awful the past two days - was running at sub-56k speeds last night before it totally went offline.

maevvy · 25-09-2008, 14:33

Sounds hopeful.. Will have to check when I get in and will give 'em a ring if it's still poor
