Is it just me down ?

currently running on dialup ..

sync Ok, but lost authentication for around 30 mins

anyone else ?

No, it's not just you. The router work tomorrow will cure the problem (I hope), but there have been disconnections at 16:08, 16:32 and 16:44.

Same here - I rang IDNET and they said there is a major outage which they are working on atm.

I pointed out that there was nothing on the status page and had to smile at the reply 'ooh how did you get to the staus page?'!

Just got back on after a good 30 odd minutes offline.

gw5 here

Just got back on with IDNET as I posted - phew.

Thanks all, it's all back now, panic over

hope the maintenance sorts it out, then Rik

Just had a quick panic glad it wasn't just me, all ok for now though. Simon siad it seems to be sorting itself out now.

The loss of connection at around 16:08 today was caused by one of the centrals going down. IDNet are waiting for information from BT on what caused it.

While it was down, IDNet took the opportunity to deal with the router maintenance, planned for tomorrow, hence some of us saw short breaks in service as the routers re-booted, others on the affected central saw a longer break.

You were lucky. All I got was the engaged tone...again and again. Anyway, back now....

Thanks for the info, Rikbean - and very sensible to do the router maintenance in the meantime.
