Lucky you!

Getting worse here in Glasgow. Was going to go for a game on BF2 but I don't think I will bother. May as well go see what cr4p is on Sky this evening, I don't fancy watching Chelsea v Newcastle.

grubbymitts: Didn't see your edit till after I had posted my reply. Unlucky you then.

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?

ntl broadband internet customers maybe expereincing slow / intermittant browsing. This is due to a network fault. Our engineers are working to resolve this issue. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?

I'm getting loads of connections dropping and such, Google isn't working with the domain, only the IP. Some sites work for a bit and then stop or when I do a search or something :\.

I'm connected to Notts.

Re: Connection to BBC/Google etc?

No BBC, google, or MSN in Middlesbrough TS6 area. Most websites are down but google can be accessed via its IP. Sounds like a DNS issue?
