Problems accessing sites

[Gary]

Anyone having issues getting to sites other than idnetters?  Most odd but I can only seem to load this site all of a sudden. Could be a DNS issue, I'm about to go out so maybe all will be better when I return.

[gizmo71]

Yeah, it's not everywhere, but Slashdot is in and out and more annoyingly my connection to work is too.

[Simon]

I can still get Amazon and BBC News here, Gary. 

[Gary]

I had some others working, then some site stopped, its been a bit hit and miss for maybe 15 mins 

[sat_mad]

Same here. Having problems with eBay especially.

[tamtap]

yup definately routing issues. They seem to have these sort of problems every few months. Usually at a weekend when they are unreachable as they dont have support at nights or weekends which is a real pain in the arse.

[Najarak]

Same problem here with websites plus I can't get email from my non IDNet addresses.

[zappaDPJ]

I'm having the same problems with multiple sites.

[lozcart]

Some problems here, especially it seems American sites, taking a long time to load.

[quack]

Some sites OKish, if slow. Others just won"t finish loading. Also non-idnet mail not working.

[cavillas]

Was usinf open dns servers and been having problems for past hour or so, switched to idnet servers and everything now ok.

[Steve]

Just failed on smtp.idnet.com?  Anyway I have emailed support regarding this issue, hopefully we'll get a response shortly. Thanks Alf, mine is currently better on IDNet DNS but the forum just took 4.5 secs to load a page. Neither Zen nor AAISP are reporting any routing issues ie LINX  at present.

[tamtap]

its not a DNS issue its a routing issue. They seem a regular occurance with IDNET.

[esh]

Yeah, I run a local DNS and I'm having random issues. I also think a peering/routing issue. Almost certainly not IDNet's fault, but hopefully they will disable the peered network if it carries on and route the traffic elsewhere.

[tamtap]

agree, i noticed my router got a non-idnet IP address assigned during a reboot. so definately something up. Their service status page is a fail though.

Many websites are not loading for me, and their traces usually end like:

nothing seems to be getting past v225.core1.lon1.he.net currently, at least 4 sites (and counting) have all had their trace die there.

Some sites and services started resolving for me, fell over and then came back again. However I'm still having issues with battle.net services for example, which may or may not be related.

Some people here report things like Steam aren't working, and I can't update my IDE which is rather annoying. IRC is working just fine, oddly enough. Connections do come and go though, so I suspect a peered routing is either conflicting or just being stupid.

[Baz]

which sites you having trouble with? most seem ok here but the forums and IDNet were sluggish this morning for me

[esh]

I've had failures from netbeans.org, port80a.se.quakenet.org, the Steam content network in general (steampowered.com), the gawker network sites, kickstarter, and a few others which I can't remember. I'll have to go through the logs.

[Baz]

only had fail with port80a site   all the others seem ok

[Wivelrod]

I'm one of many trying to connect to Guild Wars 2, and yes they are having problems with their log in servers. However I think this issue is affecting me trying to connect too. For instance trying to hit their Authentication server IP:

Getting past v225.core1.lon1.he.net seems to be hit and miss.

[Gary]

Still can't get some American sites working. Having issues with ITunes and app store on iPhone. Using Norton DNS at a friends who is on idnet.

[esh]

Yeah netbeans.org is up and down all the time. I managed to get it updated after about 30-40 tries. Ditto for GW2:
