I work for a company which is across the road from the Manchester Internet Peering point. We have a 45Mbit and 100Mbit connections into the Internet. Today both our ISP's failed within minutes of each other. Since then we have seen parts of our international network going up and down all day. It has been stable for the last few hours and working fine, but apparently one of the major network centers lost UPS power earlier today and routing table loops have been occurring all across the UK as engineers try and work around these missing routes. I don't know if this is related to NTL's problems, but I know that NTL do peer in Manchester and a few other of the affected points on the UK Internet.

Had major problems getting to Google this evening. Switched to running my own DNS server and all is fine - faster responses than I've had using NTL's DNS for months!

parky · 22-05-2006, 22:00

Same problems here in Warrington, can't access :-

BBC
Apple
Google
etc

Same problem that we have had quite a few times in the past and always the same sites, can't they sort this out?

Spoke to soon. Gone again - back to pages not loading and those that do are missing bits.

Zee · 22-05-2006, 22:03

Everything back to normal in London, sometimes goes slow for a moment, but all is ok now

Cerberus · 22-05-2006, 22:07

Absolutely zip in Rutherglen. Most popular sites are still down and the connection is as sluggish as a wet sponge.

Nothing mentioned on the service status pages or service status line either. I am getting tired of paying for a second rate service. Not a happy bunny.

Moan finished.

Jon_ · 22-05-2006, 22:08

Same in leeds, switching my proxies has had some mixed results

sir_drinks_alot · 22-05-2006, 22:08
