Cant access / download from certain sites

Hi

Since the update of the firmware on the superhub I cant access the following site

gc.progvo.com

It was working fine yesterday bit but I can't reach it at all on any of my desktop pcs.

I can't ping it on either of my desktops but can access it via my laptop using vpn so im guessing its a dns problem.
i tried changing the dns server on my desktop and it didn't work so is the router overwiritng my desktop change ?
?

Any help much appreciated

Thanks,

DinAlt

No.

Its a routing issue between virgin (and others maybe) and telia. I cannot access anything that goes through telia either.

Thanks Philipp,

So I'm not going mad - anyway of getting round it temporarily ?

nslookup gc.progvo.com
Server: cache1.service.virginmedia.net
Address: 194.168.4.100

DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.

no nothing you can do apart from using a vpn that has not got this current issue. I'm not sure why you cannot lookup the dns though. that might be another issue!

Yes its routing issue. dunno if its the return or forward path. I wonder if these means world of warcraft is down for the users who use that. telia is used with that isnt it?

Thanks again,

Well if it's affecting Wow should be enough impetus for them to fix it

Re: Cant access / download from certain sites

WoW has a known fault at the moment as i found out on the phone today when reporting a separate problem. I dont even play it but he said "yes there is a known fault with it" i was reporting slow speeds and crap ping and that was his first attempt to hand me off lol
