A had all sorts of problems for a couple of hours or so including very intermittent performance from this site and BBC. Facebook was unreachable but is back now (Twitter worked though).

It points to something unpleasant having gone on deep in the core network which I hope has been resolved. as usual with these things experience can vary from one part of the country to another (I'm in the South East).

Looking at speed test results all looks normal again

But issues are still there for some sites depending on where the BT network feeds them

Same problem here with BT FTTP in North Hampshire. Our call centre in Glasgow is also down. It is starting to come back now.

I am still having the problems with the same websites - Wiki, BBC, BT (parts of) along with some much smaller and niche. And the "good" ones are still performing - Google, TBB and others.

From what I can see, it is either on a connection to Faraday House or another major node directly connected to it.


edit to add:

Just done a run through various sites again and some that were good are now having problems and a coupe of problem ones are now available. Potentially some re-routing taking place on the network.

I'm in Bath, had problems since about 8am,still abit iffy connecting to some sites now.

Similar problems accessing various sites.
Been experiencing it since around 8:00 this morning.

Glad it's not just me - some sites appear to be working now, but still having issues.

Whatever the problem is, it is not fixed. Wiki is currently unavailable and some odd delays before a fast page load on other sites.

Facebook was unreachable

Some good came of it then.
