Hey all

Is anyone else on Spark UFB having issues?

Since ~5pm my internet has been dead; the only site/service I can access is spark.co.nz - although I can't seem to click beyond the homepage.

I'm in Albany, Auckland.

Nothing on the Spark service alerts or Twitter, including a general search on spark or sparknz.

Obviously all the usual service restorations have been tried ala modem and ONT reboots.

Not on UFB, but issues with Spark since 1630.
ADSL, DSL up I have a WAN IP address, but web pages would not load, no throughput.
Changed DNS no change, originally I could Ping my WAN IP from my phone, but that stopped shortly after, back up now, but very intermittent and crap...

I'm on Spark (Xtra) and can't get Facebook to load. Tried downrightnow.com to check FB is up and that isn't loading either.
Edit: forgot to add, this is on VDSL.
