Internet Access

Post by johnboy »

Anyone having internet problems in the UK today? One minute some websites are reachable and the next they're not (cyber Monday?). It reminds me of the the earlier widespread BT network problems.

JB the media were saying that today is the busiest day of the year for folk buying on the internet Cyber Monday as you say, so i suspect that may be the cause of the poor connections. Personaly i have not experienced any issues.

It turns out there were multiple dns problems at bt yesterday affecting parts of the UK. I switched to google dns temporarily and that worked ok, it's quite handy to know for the future.
