Loads fine here with auto obtain selected, however I did have to use my Zen dial up account to update my AV deffiles earlier today after trying for almost 2 days on Ntl BB, suspect Ntl DNS very slow to update.

Thank you just skipping round the proxies here have to keep changing them

Hi the eng no problems here in Droylsden been working great since they last fixed them.

[th'engineer]

think this may more relate to my connection, not NTL so am doing some checking

[iadom]

Definitely something amiss, I have had to resort to my Zen dial up once again to post this, cannot reach this site via Ntl BB.

EDIT, dial up is so slow,

Can reach other sites but still cannot get to cableforum via Ntl BB.

just tried a tracert via Allnettools and that timed out completely at hop 6.

You cannot tracert to cableforum - our firewall blocks icmp traffic.
