We seem to be very very slow at the moment.

It's not just me then. I just reset the router to try and fix it

If you have a broadband account with Bigbond then its par for the course. Must be the worst provider in the known universe. I hate them with a passion and am forever doing battle with the hopeless morons but where I am its all we can get. Where are the Tbalian when you want them...

I agree with all that - I too have no other option at the moment,


but it is not Bigpond causing this problem.

Hi CH,
Your description of "slow to stopped" is more accurate than my very very slow, but it seems to be waking up now.
I am not with any of the mentioned providers and other sites were OK.
Regards

Very, very slow here in Melb on Bigpond ADSL.

Thing with Bigpond is that they will not acknowledge a problem even when there is. If you all to say "I have an outage" the onus is on you to prove that there IS an outage. By then and after 60 or more frustrating minutes on the phone to India, things are no better. India always refuse to escalate to an Australian operator (the Indian call centre gets penalised). The problem with me is that I have no other choice but to go with Bigpond, all the other providers ride on Bigpond's backs around here.

It's a case of bend over and take it like a man.

Has been fast as usual but then I'm on the Optus cable, nothing to do with Telstra' s system.


Peter.

All normal here, am on Telstra Business ADSL

Bookmark the link below and when you can't get on try it out and you'll find out if it's just you or it's down for everyone. won't help you fix it but at least you'll have some idea what the problem is and if it's widespread or not.

Down For Everyone Or Just Me -> Check if a website is down or up?

PS been running fine for me all day.

Running TPG. Has been hit n miss all arvo for me too.

Hi Neil,
Could be a script for Seinfield.... it's not you it's me....

I can't get to the forum from iinet, it seems to be a routing problem somewhere, traceroute fails, but that's not conclusive since some routers block traceroute...(I suspect)

I am getting in via telstra (secondary mobile internet connection) at present, but it was also down earlier..

So.. it's not you and it's not me, it's someone else..

Hope this clarifies things a little or others who are busily re-booting modems and checking firewalls...

Regards
Ray

Both forums were off line for 15-20 minutes from around 8:25pm tonight. Fault was with the server in USA.
