In reply to a post by wingco1:

Do those graphs include fibre users?

Yes.

The MSILs are the handover points from BT Wholesale. The 21CN equivalent of BT Centrals. More info on this page. On the graphs link I gave, you can see the WBMC ones, followed by the IPSCs.

Which gateway am I on?

From the tracert I think pcl-cr02. The best check is http://usertools.plus.net/@gateway/

(I think that's right, if not just go to the usertools part and it's the last entry on the left. I'm on holiday using Sky so it won't work for me).

I think he's actually on pcl-bng04 (new gateway) as the DNS hasn't updated.

The BNG gateways are only on the WBC interconnects (21CN) so any 20CN customers won't be affected by the BNG issues.

Hi all,

Sorry to everyone who was affected by the outage! Our network engineers are continuing to work on this and are investigating what happened and how we can mitigate this in the future.

Apologies for any inconvenience the outage has caused.

Regards,

Hi,

I am trying to access the Plusnet portal from a remote location. I am also unable to access the plusnet or force9 email servers to pick up my email.

Using traceroute I can see the following

Is this an ongoing problem, or is there a solution that I have missed.

I can access the rest of the internet.

Have you received reports from customers saying speed has become inconsistent or dropped since the failure(s)?

It might well do, if other gateways are down for 21CN users e.g. ADSL2+ etc and FTTC then the ones that are up will be busy if folk reboot and get connected onto the same gateway basically congestion which can lower the throughput speeds, of course it could be some other issue for that range of gateways.

Possibly they are blocking access from Norway for some reason.

Either your IP address could have been specifically blocked due to trying to access the mail servers from there, (suspected hacking attempts), so now you can't access the main website, or the address range you are on is already blacklisted somewhere.

The gateway graphs look perfect today.
