    Default 'Tinterweb problems!

    Is anyone else suffering problems with some websites?

    I can't access a random selection of sites including my email. This forum and many other sites perfectly fine but others are completely unconnectable.

    Having lots of difficulty accessing sites.

    I can get the org and one or two other sites that I have tried no problem but some random ones I have tried to access from google not a hope.

    We noticed problems earlier. Furthest I was able to track it down was to BT routing to the Akamai CDN. It wasn't an Akamai issue as I could get to everything fine tunnelling through one of BT's peers. It's all working now as far as I'm aware now.

    Yep, my virgin.net email keeps gong down intermittently. Says:

    I can't get on the Org, most frustrating!!
    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    Courage to change the things I can,
    And wisdom to know the difference.
