Lost connection

[psp83]

I've lost my connection and getting a different ip given to me in the router control panel.

My friend on the same exchange has lost connection aswell and he's also with IDnet.

If you are getting one in the 169 range it can't establish PPP, reboot your router but if this does not work you will need to call support.

[Simon]

Same here.  Not sure about the IP though.

Exact same problem, I'm on halfway exchange (Glasgow).

I lost connection a few minutes ago and now the router is picking up some really weird ip address. Posting this from mobile.

[Glenn]

Same here, Paul. I'm not getting an IP address, on my phone at the moment.

[psp83]

Ip address I'm getting is 172.16.36.73

[Steve]

I've lost PPP as well has anyone called support yet

Who broke the internet??

I'm having the same issue, just rebooted my router, syncs tn the exchange but thats about it.  Posting from my phone.

[Simon]

just calling...

[aurichie]

Same problem here. Connection dropped, line still synced but the password is being rejected with authentication failure messages.

[Wingnutz]

Witney Exchange 01993 Oxfordshire also 'down'.... but modem still has 'sync'.

[Azy]

Got the same problem here in Shrewsbury

[Glenn]

Called in a fault

[woooshuk]

Same auth issue here in NI.

Daughter just phoned to say her internet is completely down now (Horsham) - thinking it is the usual problem.  Glad I was able to check on here and reassure her that it seems to be IDNet and that she is not alone!  Just told her to unplug router and leave it off for a while - hope this is correct.

[Steve]

My advice is don't keep rebooting your router it will avoid messing up your sync.

Lost connection here in Newbury as well.

Modem still appeared to be connected, so restarted it, now the DSL light is just flashing (I don't even get to the point of authenticating/getting an IP.)

WAN link is up, PPPoE is down.

"Both our BT Host Link connections went offline at 19:20 this evening. BT are investigating.

Same here (Birmingham) showing sync and PPP but incorrect ip address and no Internet.

Good to see everyone has backup connections :-) Personally I'm using MyWi on an iPhone.

[Mouseroo]

Lost connection in Somerset as well. Still getting ADSL signal, but no data.

I'm actually elsewhere in the world on a different DSL line 

But there is GPRS via Blackberry. Slow as hell though.
