Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...

I am having similar problems. I noticed this afternoon my IP address keeps changing.
Having great trouble reaching many sites and downloading my mail from Yahoo. Extremely slow.
Tried re-booting the SACM and took about 15 minutes to lock on.

It may be the server that might be down, or try unplugging the modem and re/plugging it okies!!!

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...

It seems the Proxys Have gone down, suddenly today sites were either slow or down, MSN, Skype, News etc all work fine - which points to the Proxy. Downloading a file was coming in 2-3KB/sec -- not bad eh...

Took for 30 mins to get this page up and tried a whole range of proxies but never seem to make any difference. Also tried rebooting modem etc

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...

i had to put another proxy in to get any net whatsoever, but my online gaming is off limits, pings out of control and way too laggy.

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...

Same here, ping timeouts, spasticated pings then fine, browsing dodginess, not solved by changing proxies. DNS seems totally screwed, ips on my tracerts are not resolving to the hostnames, seems as if ntl has reached meltdown.

Re: can't connect to a variety of sites...

Yeah, same problems here in Scunny (hi again Mauldor )

Very similar problems to the last time it went mammaries skyward (oversubscribed UBR I think they said it was ??)

I have a week off work now .... and would definately like to bury myself in some online gaming, so hope it all gets sorted soon



edit .... can't be as bad as last time ... all this post done in one session
