Problems?

psp83 · Sep 22, 2010, 19:11:59

Any problems tonight?

Having trouble loading sites, including this forum.

Rik · Sep 22, 2010, 19:13:32

None that we know of, Paul, unless you're being affected by the Peterborough BRAS problem.

psp83 · Sep 22, 2010, 19:18:09

As you can see with the graph, I'm getting packet lose at the mo..

And getting this in the browser

When I do a tracert, I get the following when its playing up.

C:\Users\Paul>tracert www.thinkbroadband.com

Tracing route to www.thinkbroadband.com [80.249.99.130]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

1 * 192.168.0.1 reports: Destination net unreachable.

Trace complete.

Would it be worth a router re-boot or a flushdns, Paul?

psp83 · Sep 22, 2010, 19:26:04

A router reboot is off the cards for tonight as I don't want to be re-syncing at 1mb $:-\$

I've already tried the old ipconfig /flushdns and didn't show any signs improving it.

I'll reboot in the morning and if its no better I'll try my other netgear router.

Rik · Sep 22, 2010, 19:30:26

I can't think what else to suggest, Paul, given we have no other complaints. It may be an exchange issue that hasn't been reported yet, of course.

psp83 · Sep 22, 2010, 19:38:49

I'll see how it goes tonight and if I have to change routers over then I will but I really don't want to do that tonight.

psp83 · Sep 22, 2010, 19:54:40

The router keeps powering down and on again as my sync keeps getting lower and uptime resets..

Time to change routers I think.

Steve · Sep 22, 2010, 20:00:31

Absolutely.

pctech · Sep 22, 2010, 20:27:01

I see you are using Chrome, have you tried Firefox or IE?

Yeah, but its not a browser issue, something is wrong with the router.

I've now lost 1mb from my sync now with the router keep powering on/off.

I've turn't it off for about 30mins to see if that helps.

pctech · Sep 22, 2010, 20:32:51

Try a factory reset incase the firmware is going a bit bizarre but sounds like it could be dying.

Rik · Sep 23, 2010, 08:35:12

Definitely, possibly the PSU is on its way out.

Niall · Sep 23, 2010, 20:58:16

I'm having issues seeing some sites. I didn't bother noting which as I thought it was due to me downloading a game through steam. Now I can't see Facebook at all and just got this message:

Service Unavailable - DNS failure
The server is temporarily unable to service your request. Please try again later.

Reference #11.c4863554.1285271802.5ef788b

Although, this may just be coincidence and it could be Facebook themselves, as Youtube, etc is working fine. Twitter was a bit sluggish, but seems okay now.

zappaDPJ · Sep 23, 2010, 21:02:57

I'm getting the same message for Facebook.

[EDIT] I think Facebook is down for everyone but then again http://downrightnow.com/ also seems to be down right now

RA-1972 · Sep 23, 2010, 21:09:20

Think you will find facebook is playing up , for everyone , just been down a friend who is on virgin he is having the same problems .

Niall · Sep 23, 2010, 21:16:33

But I want to post a video, so all the people I don't care about in my "friends" list, can see it

Found that too with a random google search.

Perhaps they are migrating data to new machines in one of those data centres they keep building.

netn00b · Sep 23, 2010, 21:21:43

Except 2 mins later it's up again

Technical Ben · Sep 23, 2010, 21:30:41

Big thunderstorm here. Probably not affecting any connections though. Unless the rain keeps coming. Then the whole town will be under water!

netn00b · Sep 23, 2010, 21:31:16

We're currently experiencing some site issues causing Facebook to be slow or unavailable for some people. We are working to resolve this issue as quickly as possible.
