No Internet this morning?

Appears to be an outage when checking online. East Anglia for me but seems to be all over according to some reports. How soon will things be sorted? Thx

Down for me when I tried to use my PC at around 9 am.

Mysteriously returned at approximately 9:30 (but not due to anything I'd done with my kit) after trying various things such as using a VPN and ~~I'd~~ reluctantly rebooting my router and ONT.

During the outage, strangely the VPN eventually said it was connected but was unusable, and somehow WiFi calling from my Mobile with Flight mode enabled worked.

@joecool it should be fixed now if you can try a reboot for me.

Same here. Hard to tell how widely people are affected, but a couple of router reboots haven't sorted the problem.

Edit: back up. 10th router reboot seems to have done the trick

Local mystery solved - on checking it seems I'd forgotten to re-enable the option to force my DrayTek router to use alternative DNS on some previous occasion in which there were PN DNS shenanigans - now re-enabled.

Edit: typo

Hi thx for your replies, actually came back quite soon after I'd left the msg.

My BT connection was down all this morning.

Reconnected around midday at a slower rate than usual. Probably a side effect of every man and their dog being reconnected at the same time.

I guess a reset tomorrow will put that right.
