Appears to be working. Thought it was a fixed line problem until I tried my phone and then my computer again, and it just all worked. *cross fingers that it stays like this*
plambrechtsen: 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.
in a less busy moment, would someone mind explaining why it's an issue with Google (not Bing/etc.; not _all sites_), and whether or not this happens with any other sites we might be familiar with (youtube, facebook, etc.)?
On-Demand was having issues as the player page has lookups to both Facebook and Google Analytics and it was hanging on both of them, once I host-blocked them it fired up and worked fine, and a download I had running before things failed kept happily running at >1MB/sec the whole time.
XT Mobile also failed for me, I was unable to google for a couple of things I was trying to find and it got nowhere, tried different DNS servers which didn't help. Seems ok this morning though.
Lykho: one of our computers is having issues with Yahoo, today. (intermittent inability to load pages) :S
is there any reason to think restarting the modem/router would change anything, or is it solely a Telecom issue?
I haven't seen any of the similar cache issues we had earlier on. The Akamai farm was acting up a few days ago affecting Vimeo, but that seems to be fixed too.
