Re: WTF? Proxies are back in Manchester!!!!

Leicester proxies were turned on when they did that major maintenance 2 weeks ago, before then they were turned off since I signed upto ntl and that was last august in 2003.

Since they been turned on I have suffered drasticly reduced http performance.

kitty proxies only affect http web pages, they not used for other applications like mirc.

Re: [Merged] Manchester Proxies.

I did wonder if something was up, I'd get about 3k of a webpage loading and it'd freeze, I just put in a proxy in Cambridge instead and it's been fine since, I don't mind swapping proxies as long as I have a connection.

To all those whining like little girls about this, why not do something about it yourselves, instead of waiting for NTL to resolve it, we've had proxy issues before in a lot of areas, just switch to another one, it's that easy!

Re: [Merged] Manchester Proxies.

Don't switch to another one, it masks the real problem and upsets our load calculations.

th'eng - how do you know you were going through cache10? Just testing how much people know of how caches work. I'm perfectly willing to admit there's a problem if I see some evidence.

I know
I was showing another way for someone to get you IP number as the webpage that many use to check their IP numbers only shows the proxy number.

I am on cache1-mant.server.ntli.net and have found pages slow loading and I was trying to register a domain name with 123-reg and gave up as it never finished checking if it was available.

I have to say things have slowed down since proxies was put back on. I can get around the websites just they are slow and since the proxies I can't access the BB+ it apears my 3 months free are now up early as it never opens the page for me to look or listen to anything. I cannot reregister as when you click to use it now nothing happens..

How do you know?

Also, I hope anyone having problems is calling in to report them. As usual I look a fool when I tell people unofficially that I think there are issues and then can't back it up.
