If you're having any problems with your service following today's router upgrades, eg you can't reach a particular site or sites, could you please post details (including the URL and the results of pinging it)  in this thread so that we can pass the information onto IDNet.

If the problem goes away, a post to say so would also be appreciated.

Thanks. :)

Hi there.

We cannot get through to some web sites as 'server errors', and email access is intermittent. Also, my wife has sky sports app on her ipod touch, and this cannot now find any internet. It appears we can't access secure servers or ports, or at least not for any period of time. Thanks . Here's one server we cannot access  vi.ebaydesc.co.uk

I'm having a problem which seems to be with push email.  This thread refers:

Have been having a few problems since yesterday evening.  Occasional disconnects (last one at aprox 10am). Since then, I have been getting frequent "Ooops.. Firefox could not find the page you are looking for..." messages (or something along those lines). A refresh or two does the trick, but it is way frustrating!  Have also been experiencing something similar to blocked ports - i.e. intermittently unable to connect to my mail servers.
I wasn't even aware of any "Upgrades" taking place - don't we get e-mail notifications of planned works? If not, then we should! ;)

The last webpage I had to "refresh" 3 times before it would load was: http://www.theitjobboard.co.uk/IT-Job/Junior-Java-Web-Developer-Consultant-London-Java-J2EE/7955682/en/?WT.mc_id=A117&xc=63&utm_source=Aggregator&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Trovit

Hi Rik, I'm having problems accessing some sites but strangely it's only on my desktop, my laptop (connected via wi-fi) appears fine! I had assumed I'd got infected somehow but hopefully it's an after effect of these upgrades.

http://en-gb.facebook.com seems to be one, as does http://www.play.com and http://www.crackberry.com

pings return - Ping request could not find host
tracert returns - Unable to resolve target system name.


EDIT: Just realised my laptop is using a VPN connection so I can access my work's intranet, that'll explain why it seems okay.

For me this isn't a problem with any specific URL, more a general problem where I receive a "server not found" error about one third of the time visiting any site at all.

As an example of a consistent problem however I'd cite any live stream, such as this one http://www.justin.tv/competitiveonline  which fails to work at all for me (or indeed any other live stream, not just the ones on that particular website)

Conrad

Same.  Not a specific site issue, just intermittent failures.

IDNet's mail server appears to be sending mail out twice.

Just to clarify, that's incoming mail being received twice by me.

On my PC two messages come down more or less at the same time. On my iPhone I get notification of two messages received but there's only one message visible.

eBay.co.uk is fine on my iPhone (resolves to wap.ebay.co.uk), as is the eBay app.

Hi Steven,

No problems here with play.com or crackberry.  Have you tried a DNS flush?

Yes, several times, several router reboots too. Even reset my tcp/ip settings.

ebay.co.uk isn't working for me either.

Now I am having trouble sending e-mails.  Just had to retry 3 times to send via my own server.  Grrrr.

Are the current problems possibly area related, my connection went down this morning and my router completely locked out this afternoon due to the idnet updates. However now my connection is flying along and no problems with ebay, Play, Facebook etc.

I'm Birmingham based 0121.

Zebsy

Glad that eBay works for you.
It works intermittently for me, works for a min or so then completely fails
Not good!

DNS flush did not work for me, nor router or PC reboot. Only thing that does is refreshing pages, as many as 4-5 times.
Also having problems in sending emails.

Everything was okay until late afternoon.

About half hour ago I couldn't access idnet.net, idnetters.co.uk or the webmail over my work VPN (BT connection).

I think I've been spared as apart from ppp loss this am I've not noted any issues.

I just tried calling IDnet cust svc (01462480092) and got the "we are closed" message.  Didn't leave a voicemail (but I might do soon).  Does anyone know what the official word is on the situation? Is there a number we can call to get an update?  I know the answer will probably just be "Major Service Outage in the BT network", but I'd like to know whether engineers are at least on the case.

Oh, I'm on the Rayleigh exchange if that helps at all.

Steve

It's clearly evident that there are still routing issues and IDNet will be working on them until they are resolved. Although it's very frustrating I don't think there is anything anyone can do except wait. :(

and now the internet is working again

So is it an IDnet DNS server issue?  Can anyone confirm that?

EDIT:  Looks like that may have just been coincidence.  T'internet seems to be working again  :red: on IDnet DNS servers.

Yay!

It appears to have settled down nicely.  NOW don't touch anything!
