connection problem ?
I get odd connection problem with uk websites.
I can be visiting sites ok but suddenly get "page not available".
After leaving ie for a while i can return and all is ok again.
Happens everday for past month or so.
Tried nslookup on sites and no problems.
Done the usual modem reboot etc.
Any info appreciated.

Re: connection problem ?
I usually only get that with this site (and no-one has explained that either)

Re: connection problem ?
Could be a dodgy cache server - have you tried manually specifying another ?

Re: connection problem ?
Tried alternate proxy, if that's what you mean, with no improvement.

It was.
Are you using a router at all, or any form of NAT ?

Re: connection problem ?
just been checking sites and after visiting a few all was ok and then at 12.07 gone again and still no access 12.16.
the sites are:
adobe.co.uk, abxzone.com, theregister.co.uk, nebula-electronics.com,
currys.co.uk, pcworld.co.uk.
I can visit nthellworld & cable forums + some other uk sites ok and all other sites are ok.

Re: connection problem ?
Try setting them specifically ... I use
194.42.224.130
194.42.224.131
See if that helps ..

Re: connection problem ?
I'll give that a try and see if any change, although all returned to normal at 12.20 and so will probably be ok for a while anyway.

Looks like NTL DNS playing up again in that case

Remembering that changing your local dns servers will not make a blind bit of difference to web browsing if you are routed via the transparent proxies - since they still use ntl's.

Are you sure, because when ntls dns is broke it is possible that you can specify a non NTL dns to get the connection working.
Even through poxies
Think we need the BBK or Justanothernoob view not sure what you said is correct
