If you're trying to log a fault with 123, there's a bit of a wait because of the high call volumes, apologies. Hang in there if you can!

I won't bother calling.....as I have the same problem....and Telecom appears to already know about it.

bing.com seems to be working fine.....as I think someone else said.

Google is....dead.

Neither. Just copying their relevant tweets :)

Seems funny, not long ago it was 'theres someone looking into the issue SOME of you MAY be experiencing'

Must be a lot of SOME if the phones are overloading eh :)

Issues Accessing Some Websites
Telecom would like to advice of a known issue affecting customers may be experiencing problems with browsing to international web sites and accessing the xtra.co.nz website. Our Technicians are currently working to resolve this issue. Thank you.

It's more than that. I disconnected from WoW and now cannot reconnect.
So now it's Web, Vent and WoW ...

*edit* to reclarify - I was playing happily and disconnected myself manually, i.e. logged off. When I attempted to reconnect, nada @ login. So that'll probably be battle.net's auth service prior to game connection etc.

He hasn't been deported. He's up for a rehearing of his bail application...and this is well before any extradition proceedings have got underway.

He may not even be extradited....though we know very well from the Hobbit pre-amble regarding working conditions that this government is on a "Law for sale!" basis where US interests are concerned.

The issue is being worked on with the highest priority. I can also say it's not being caused by the transparent proxy as I am no longer going via it, and I am having the issue too.

I've noticed that google is now going via the Sydney Akamai farm so I suspect something has gone untoward with the Akamai farm in NZ.
