Is Zen Down?

I can't seem to access the internet, it connects on the router but trying to access websites after a small delay redIrects to the BT error test page.

Anyone else having problems?

I'm with Zen and the internet disappeared for quarter of an hour about 3am this morning, then came back. About 8am it disappeared again and has been off since.

The connection went stale and after rebooting the router it was receiving 172.16 address (instead of a Zen static).

Where abouts are you? I'm in Coventry in the West Midlands. I have a feeling it's a local problem so unless you also happen to be in Cov I expect in all likelihood it's actually unrelated - Zen status page doesn't show a Zen related outage anyway (as of 9am that is).

status.zensupport.co.uk has info about outage in North of England but my sites in Aberdeen, Glasgow and Belfast look as if they are out at the moment - since 08:13

There is a BT outage in and around the Manchester, Mossley, Saddleworth, Oldham and surrounding areas. this is causing authentication to fail, hence why some customers may see a BT 172.xx.xx.xx IP being given to the router (which is of course not usable).

The incident numbers are 15903 for Mossley, and 15904 for Manchester

Here's hoping its back asap...

We have no Internet on 01530 either, Ashby NW Leics - is this related?

Down since 8-30 in Sheffield

I'm just North of Bury So 14 miles north of Manchester.

I noticed that IP 172 also thought zen changed at first lol.

Ah well I was gonna have a mass effect 3 gameathon this weekend.

Down near Edinburgh and I'm getting a 172.XXX.XXX.XXX IP too so its obviously all related to this outage.

There's currently a large scale BT Wholesale outage affecting 21CN and Fibre connections across the country, and naturally, any ISP's that use BT's nodes for the link back to the ISP.

My sites Aberdeen Belfast and Glasgow back on at 1103.
