Seems to be affecting NTL newserver as well.

I get "MSG=DNS - Unable to find server's address" for the NTL server in newsbin but newshosting is fine.

Yup, same here (nr. Manchester)...

It appears anything it can load from a cache works (google - but perhaps only common searches), but anything secure or like webmail won't work at all.

NTL got big big DNS and Poxy problems at the moment.... beeb, ebay, google and some other sites arent reachable

im not saying the NTL dns servers are a problem, im pretty sure that this issue is the router here as when i try to open about 3 sites at once on my laptop it seems to upset it and cause it to not route traffic correctly on port 80.

I want to see if specifying the DNS server resolves the problem as the DHCP on the router is issueing its own IP as the DHCP server so my computer is first asking the router to do the DNS lookup rather than the DNS servers.

I don't want my computer to do that i want to to send the dns request to the DNS server rather then first trying to ask the router to do the dns lookup.

i got the first IP 194.168.4.100 from the routers status page but it doesn't list a secondary DNS server so im guessing with the 194.168.4.101.

According to the service status page there are no listed problems!!!

What a load of crap that is. LOL

DocDutch · 07-03-2006, 20:15

anywhere is problems..... NTL DNS and PRoxy servers are both toasted

grubbymitts · 07-03-2006, 20:16

I am using nott-cache-1.server.ntli.net (I am usually on the baguley one) but it isn't much cop. Cable Forum loads up okay (thank god, or I'd be screaming at the PC by now thinking I was being Dos'd) but nothing much else.

I first realised something was wrong when Yahoo Mail gave me a right strange messed up password page. Then google borked. So...hmmm
