Yes- Having problems here in Horndean. Changing proxies appears to have helped a bit.

As usual, nothing is shown on the NTL service status page....

Re: [Merged]-Major connection issues!

Sluggish on my main PC which has the ntl connection. Couldn't access google. Just swapped to laptop with the BT wireless connection, all fine and google is accessible, obviously now points to a ntl DNS issue this.

Re: [Merged]-Major connection issues!

Bit of a sneaky workaround, but I'm using Freeserve's DNS servers and it's working for me now. The servers I'm using are

194.152.64.68
194.152.64.25

Thought that might help some people till NTL fix their problems.

edit - anyone know Telewest's DNS servers...?
