Post upgrade problems

[Rik]

That really doesn't make sense, Gary, are there any Mac users can help?

[Bill]

This one can't, I've got my own weirdies

[Rik]

You can get a cream for that, Bill.

I'll check my connection tonight when i'm home. 

@gary, i know the bt call out was for something 'different' but at the time it was all related stuff and yesterday i was witnessing multiple resyncs throughout the day and into the late evening.  I don't think highlighting this was offtopic for this thread though.

@dorsetboy: I have the RSS feed now on my browser in work, can't find an option for it to email me though? where is that?

I'm not aware of it being able to email, it's RSS or the Network status page only afaik. Unless, of course, you use a client which emails RSS.

Your mail client probably has an option to connect to RSS feeds.

At what sort of time are we roughly expecting this routing to be all happy again? It's down once more here.

[Rik]

No problems known, possibly your ISP's cache needs to be refreshed.

[esh]

It's happening across 5 different ISPs which is what made me wonder if there was an expected time frame for this.

[Rik]

You're reaching the forum, so clearly that routing is working. What can't you reach?

[Bill]

No problems known

Except maybe this oddity that Gary and I have about not updating the DNS servers... seems what I was doing (putting in blank entries) should have forced a reload from IDNet.

Could be an odd caching issue somewhere though, I'll see how it goes.

[Rik]

I've just had an update, the OpenDNS server is still being used, except, apparently for me.

My idnet internet line is what I'm (and others) having trouble accessing (from outside). It's up for a while, then it goes again. I'll try resetting all the network hardware and see if that helps.

[Steve]

I set up the Mac to have two network locations , automatic is Idnet DNS the other Opendns which is the default and just switch between the two if required. I don't get the page of garbage, I think you must be able to turn that off as my urls are not word perfect

So you're having trouble tunnelling in?

[Technical Ben]

PS. Had problems yesterday, but have cleared up now. I am however on ASDL and not ASDLMax. Is it only Max customers having continued faults?

[Rik]

It shouldn't be, Ben, partly because I'm on Max and partly because we're all the same when we reach IDNet, it's just the speeds in between that differ.

I have had a good look for RSS feed info but can't find any. How do I go about achieving this? Ta.

[Rik]

Log in to your customer portal, look towards the bottom of the left hand menu, you'll see Network Status and, under it, Updates via RSS.

[peasblossom]

Hmm. I have tried that but I'm having real trouble tunnelling in. The password and user name emailed don't seem to work. (I did type carefully!) Which do I need to use? Forum or webmail password?

[Rik]

Neither, the one you use to access the portal and the web.

[peasblossom]

I've tried that one and am still not in... 

[Rik]

Take me through what you are doing, step by step, would you?
