Are things a bit slow?

Technical Ben · Apr 04, 2012, 20:45:15

I can't remember what DNS I'm on right now, so not sure if it's just page fetching... but things seem sluggish everywhere but here. Images, pages etc taking an age to load.

Seems OK on my line at the moment going to other sites, Ben

Technical Ben · Apr 04, 2012, 21:02:27

My speed seems fine. Must be DNS then I guess.

Technical Ben · Apr 04, 2012, 21:30:31

Nope. Dns flush and swap did not fix it. Strange, this site is super fast. Chrome seems working, but fire fox is dying.

davej99 · Apr 04, 2012, 21:34:17

I seem to be browsing in treacle. Ping and speeds fine. Been like it all day. 5-10 seconds to load. Auto DNS from IDNET. Better this eve.

davej99 · Apr 04, 2012, 21:34:51

Flushed as well. Made no difference. Got several internet disconnects, not resyncs, today. BT? (That's rhetorical btw)

Technical Ben · Apr 04, 2012, 21:37:24

I've swapped dns to see if it helps.

armadillo · Apr 04, 2012, 21:40:11

Browsing seems normal for me.

Simon · Apr 04, 2012, 21:54:49

Same here - no problems.

zappaDPJ · Apr 04, 2012, 22:02:34

I've been having problems connecting to a number of sites over the last 24 hours. Sometimes the pages resolve slowly, other times they don't resolve at all. I thought it was down to server issues but if others are having problems, maybe not.

[EDIT] Netters is also now very slow on occasions for me as well.

Simon · Apr 05, 2012, 00:37:42

I've now lost my Internet completely. DSL still connected, but no PPP. Going to bed now anyway, so hope it's sorted by the morning.

Same here, a blip on Faraday according to aaisp twitter

Steve · Apr 05, 2012, 06:49:22

According to Zen there was emergency maintenance on Faraday last night.

Simon · Apr 05, 2012, 08:36:41

I have no idea what / where Faraday is!

Glenn · Apr 05, 2012, 08:41:12

A major network node in London.

Rik · Apr 05, 2012, 08:47:51

I remember it when it was just an exchange.

Not being able to pay for an eBay purchase was probably a problem with eBay itself. They popped a message up in their iPhone app to apologise for the inconvenience.

Not having an iPhone I must have missed that
