I can't get to Google.co.uk and Google.com
Cableforum is slow, however Facebook and Ebay are working perfectly here.

re: [Sept 29th '12] National Broadband Issues
Same here. I can access Facebook, but can't access Google, Twitter, Amazon and tons of other sites. Posting from my phone cos I can't access this site on Virgin either.

Just got off the phone to Virgin. They said it is a problem with a Google server that should be resolved within 4 hours. I'm not holding my breath though because last time the was a routing issue it took days to fix.

re: [Sept 29th '12] National Broadband Issues
I lost all internet with my DNS servers set to OpenDNS as i normally have them, reverting back to the VM server brought the net back.

re: [Sept 29th '12] National Broadband Issues
My internet was working fine today, and then all of a sudden it kicked me of World of Warcraft as if my internet disconnected. Now i can't get back on the game or my VoIP program (mumble) but everything else is working fine.
Can't get on www.battle.net either...or a number of other websites...but a lot are fine.
anybody know if this actually on virgin's end or is there something i'm going to have to do to fix this?
cheers.

What are your DNS servers set to? 194.168.4.100:53, 194.168.8.100:53?

Some random sites that dont work for me are:
http://google.co.uk
http://digiex.net
http://bbc.co.uk
http://theverge.com
MSN Messenger and Skype also do not work for me.
I'm guessing its a routing issue as i use Google DNS, however swhen witching back to Virgins DNS the same websites / services don't work.
If you have access to a VPN use that, thats how im browsing websites that don't work at the moment.

DNS : 194.168.4.100 194.168.8.100
I left the entries in my router empty and these are defaults i've been allocated. I will try Googles DNS servers to see if this makes any difference
Edit
Tried Google DNS no difference. Some websites though are loading but very very slowly, www.bbc.co.uk for example
