Joe, good news! I'm logged in now with bigpond so hopefully the issue is fixed...

Great news!

Hopefully we'll get confirmation from some other Bigpond customers shortly. Fingers crossed!

Hi Joe

i'm with Bigpond ADSL. I couldn't access the ASF site at all yesterday and earlier this morning but the rest of the network appeared to be working fine.
Hopefully whatever the issue was it is now fixed.

 

[Logique]

Erk!

No ASF all day yesterday (on Bigpond ADSL2+). Just a site unavailable message.

But it's working again this morning.

Thanks for letting me know! It would appear that the Bigpond issue has now been fixed.

I will merge this thread with the ASF Site Performance thread to keep all the discussion of this issue in the one place.

All OK here too Joe, on Bigpond. Was going through withdrawals.:

It's my pleasure.

Welcome back to all of ASF's Bigpond customers. It's great to have you back on board!

I'm on Bigpond adsl cable and was out all day yesterday too.

The error mesage I got was the DNS server was not working.

Is that a Bigpond issue?

Hi Whiskers! Yes, apparently the only ASF members affected were Bigpond customers. ASF was up and running all day yesterday but for some reason only Bigpond customers were unable to access it.

I've been out most of the morning and just logged on again now with bigpond, so still all good...

Made me wonder, though, if Conroy is trying out his filters with Telstra...

 

[Bill M]

Hello, back at last. I am a Bigpond Next G wireless user so it was happening with wireless too. It was out yesterday all day and this morning. Great to be back.

 

[Slipperz]

Unusual the problem was so very site specific? *gives Joes servers a kick*

Excellent it worked!

Oh and nice to be back

I couldn't access ASF either.
I'm with AAPT; would never touch Bogpong. But it's quite possible that AAPT lease the odd ADSL2+ port from Telstra at the Cannington Exchange.
Apart from late yesterday, I haven't had a problem with you guys. Great service always.

Its all up and working with Bigpond again, Joe.

I'm having a problem with incomplete loading of the home page. It comes up but lacks the market summary. In the bar at the foot it says: Waiting for view.atdmt.com.
and it goes on waiting and fails to progress.

In the headings at the top usually I go to Quick Links then to Today's Posts.
When I go to click on Quick Links instead of it actually happening the "hand" hovers and the drop down box appears but when I attempt to move the cursor down to T. Posts the box disappears.

PS after making this post I was then able to access Quick Links!

PPS Now I can't.

Joe, my apologies for raising this. I'm pretty sure now it has been my own impatience that caused the apparent difficulty.
My bookmark opens ASF on the Forums page, and I realised I was clicking on "Home" before the original page had finished loading. If I wait a whole couple of seconds until I get "Done" at the bottom, there's no problem.
Sorry.

 

[Julia]

Very slow page loading on some threads, particularly following making a new post.
No problem at all on any other website.

Will do some investigating and see if I can figure out what the problem is. Hopefully it's just some temporary sluggishness and everything will be back to normal tomorrow.

on the home page there is a banner for IBM which expands over the drop down "forum jump" menu and stops me from being able to select any of the good buttons. The close button on the ad doesn't help. It's fine on every computer but my macbook.
