Re: MAJOR NETWORK ISSUE (17 Jan 2012)

I didn't notice anything as I was in bed having a nap.
Just been reading about it on the bbc news site, love the comment 'dear virginmedia, have you tried switching it off and then back on again? love, the uk' (something like that)

I plan to be awake for the next unsheduled outage

Re: MAJOR NETWORK ISSUE (17 Jan 2012)

Seems to be okay here now unless my router is automatically rerouting.
Still were problems with virgin at work when I left for home which supplies a guest network for parts of the campus. They raised a support ticket over packet loss.
Sadly it seems Virgin have been a little economic with the truth saying it was only three hours I guess they need lessons on how to tell the time.

24 hours after the apocalypse and Virgin still are none the wiser as to what failed. This can't be good...

Re: MAJOR NETWORK ISSUE (17 Jan 2012)

Had a minor outage on Tivo on demand (Sidenote: Why when the network is down can you not access your own damn recordings?! That seems stupid!) which lasted no more than 30 mins.

Other than that, been pretty much rock solid all day. (AL4 St Albans via Hemel 50meg)

Actually they found the problem. It was Richard Branson uploading new data to his spaceship.

Not at all. If you look at the rest of the site, you'll find some very well written articles, mostly on the subject of IT (although they frequently branch out into other areas). One thing you will notice is that The Register (or El Reg as it prefers to call itself) has a very definite (and sometimes dirty) sense of humour which frequently comes out in the writing.
