Network Connectivity Problems (51290) - UPDATE
This is an update to the previously reported problems affecting connectivity to the Internet and other core services. A copy of the last announcement can be seen here:-
http://usertools.plus.net/status/archive/1210780411.htm
Towards the end of April we experienced a problem with one of our core network routers that resulted in a loss of connectivity to certain services, and problems for some customers connecting to the Internet. This was published to our Service Status feed here:-
http://usertools.plus.net/status/archive/1209053745.htm
After detailed analysis of the problem it was decided that we would pro actively replace one of the routers hardware components to safeguard against a re occurrence of the problem. This work was completed earlier as per the planned maintenance announcement here:-
http://usertools.plus.net/status/archive/1210767656.htm
Unfortunately complications arose that caused connectivity problems for customers across the network. Some were unable to connect to the Internet whilst others found that their access to certain websites and services was very sporadic. Dial up customers were also affected by this:-
http://usertools.plus.net/status/archive/1210775176.htm
At this point we brought up the link up on another routing engine, raised a case with the vendor of the hardware, and continued with our investigations. This had resolved the issue for most customers by 6:00pm.
Unfortunately further complications arose this evening that have resulted in similar issues for our customers. We believe that service has since been restored, however our network engineers will continue to monitor the situation throughout the evening.
We would like to offer our sincerest apologies for these problems and will provide further details as soon as they become available.
Kind Regards,
Bob Pullen
