I can traceroute to, but not past, bng1.quic.net.nz this morning from either inside or outside (last try 7:15am) and it seems like nothing's getting through.

 

Also looks like 0-1% traffic from the BNG out?

 

 

 

 

Status page says fine, and nobody else has beat me to posting here yet about it, which is kinda surprising! (Makes me wonder if I've missed something, apologies if I have)

 

Anyone else also having issues?

I'm also unable to route past bng1 this morning and the problem started last night during their maint window. Went to sleep with it down, woke up to find it still down... Gateway is still actively handing us the right provisioning on PPPoE when gateway is restarted, but traffic only hops twice. In Wellington.

 

Update: one less hop now; stopping at bng3 straight after our home gateway.

Looks like they’ve had a bad night with their maintenance. Friend of mine on bng1 is currently down. I’ll hit them up now.

Just FYI there is another maintenance window tonight: https://status.quic.nz/issues/65565913f4e01e58916b012c

Yeah I'm on bng1 too.

 

Traceroute from outside looks like this, bouncing back and forth between bng1 and a Vetta gateway:

edit: so not just me - Quic folks you can ignore the fault ticket I had logged asking if it was an issue with my static IP allocation!
(was wondering if it was that since nobody else had posted here yet at the time I logged it)

We came back up in the last 15 mins. Getting pretty grumpy with these outages not reflected in status to be honest...

Sorry but gotta agree with the lack of status updates. status.quic.nz still doesn't show anything happened. Also notable that the Twitter account seems abandoned.

 

Outages I'm fine with (we've all been there) but keeping people informed is pretty important, as well as having a good placating effect knowing that you're on to sorting it - especially with the tech community!

There was a published maintenance window last night on their status page and there is another one overnight tonight also as they had some issues. I challenge you to otherwise find a more open ISP that update their status page on every single outage because I can tell you now there isn't one. Status pages especially when you're an engineer working on a P1/P2 incident is the last thing you think of (trust me - I'm as guilty as everyone else with not providing status updates during incidents in previous jobs also). There have not really been outages to report on either so if you're experiencing other outages outside of what has been reported then perhaps there is something else going on with your connection.

Is there any more to this? The reference to bng1 is over my head.....does this mean a total outage or just some services? I am away from home but can see that my house lost connectivity at 12:20am this morning, and it has not come back up.

@smac There was planned maintenance overnight that completed in the early hours of the morning but there are additional problems that will be addressed in an overnight maintenance window tonight. For your connection reboot your ONT/Router and it should come back up.

 

BNG1 is just simply one of their routers that take customer connections which you're likely on.

Mine came back around 1.45 according to the logs. But yes, BNG playing up affected access to some sites/services online - should not cause your actual connection to be offline though.
