Re: Is there a problem on NTL Internet access?
I bet as we speak NTL engineers are running around trying to find out which piece of equipment needs switching off and back on again.
After all does that not solve all problems......

Re: Is there a problem on NTL Internet access?
I think its dns, I've tried speaking to the tech support about it but they are useless. My findings:
C:\Documents and Settings\Dan>nslookup www.google.co.uk
Server: cache1.ntli.net
Address: 194.168.4.100
*** cache1.ntli.net can't find www.google.co.uk: Server failed
nslookup queries the DNS servers (nothing to do with the web caches) and this query appears to fail because ntl's DNS cache does not contain google.co.uk (which it should really).
I tore my hair out trying to explain this to the tech support, I hung up when they asked me to reboot for the 3rd time.
If we could get terrestrial or sky where we live I would drop NTL in a heart beat.

Change to proxy:
nott-cache-8.server.ntli.net
Worked for me.

Re: Is there a problem on NTL Internet access?
I think it's an intermitent problem. Sometimes the DNS servers timeout, other times they supply spurious data.
Tech support say they are unaware of a problem with the servers.
hmmm
