cant connect

hi this is my first time posting here , i have a small problem.
All i seem to be able to do is browse the internet i cant connect to MSN, mIRC,skype, play games nor get my email. Was ok till about 10mins ago then it all just dropped. Seems very strange normally if my inet goes the whole lot goes including browsing. No planned maintenance for my area either.

I have tried resetting the modem and router but still no joy

have just done a winmtr trace and 6 ips and all are stopping at win-bb-b-so-300-0.inet.ntl.com
after that "No response from host"

Re: cant connect

Tried a different proxy? Could be an issue with the proxy you are currently using.

Re: cant connect



A proxy would only affect connections on port 80, so doesn't seem like it would be that.

I presume you have rebooted the cable modem?

Are you using a router? if so, have you tried connecting without?

Could be a problem with DNS- have you got DNS servers specified or set to obtain automatically??

Re: cant connect

yep rebooted the modem and pc's tried connecting direct to the modem rather than through the router... rebooted the router... phoned NTL and they have no idea what it is ... i have done tracert and it stops at win-bb-b-so-300-0.inet.ntl.com (hop 6) doesnt matter that ip i try ALL stop at the same place, so it seems something is a bit of a miss at their end

engineers have been informed and im in Basingstoke too... i suggest that anyone else from Basingstoke also phones them maybe they might get it sorted quicker as im sure they think its just me :P

oh and DNS is set to auto
