Did something happen at Brackley/Banbury overnight?

It's not across the board as I can access all the sites your struggling with, not that's any help to you. I've tried a couple of DNS changes all seemed fine as well.

Everything is fine with my connection after the earlier hiccups.

Have you tried rebooting your modem and router Andrue?

If you keep ending up at the BTW page something is happening before your traffic is handed off to IDNet's hostlinks.

Power down the router for 30 minutes to let the session expire and then let it restart, this will renew the session on the BRAS, you might take a little speed hit but it should recover.

If not you might need to talk to support as you might have the same issue Lona had which was fixed by a username change.

Thanks guys. I'll see how it is when I get home tonight. For the record I'd got to those sites earlier but not later on. Weird thing about it was that I could get to other sites just fine at that point. I'd had that earlier in the evening - for a while I could get to thinkbroadband.com but couldn't get to their forums. Seems rather strange that only some sites were impacted by a BTw handoff problem I'd have expected it to kill everything or at least intermittently affect everything.

Nothing showing on my TBQM either for that time:

I guess some routing information for specific sites was lost with the LINX fault and it's taken awhile to re update

Had another issue tonight getting to El Reg so I switched the modem off for half an hour. Would still like to understand how that gateway error page can be sporadic or site specific. Ah well - the mysteries of BTw I suppose.

Gah! No that didn't help. I've rebooted my laptop now and flushed its DNS cache.
