 Anyone else noticing issues?

 

 

 

looks like vodafones anyix site has totally died again, along with one of the peering points in auckland (yet to lock down exactly what peering point that is)

Something died. Vodafone's cable DNS is broken, and a bunch of sites on their domain (help.vodafone.com, community.vodafone.com) are as of this post currently inaccessible.


 
 
 

Move to New Zealand's best fibre broadband service (affiliate link). Note that to use Quic Broadband you must be comfortable with configuring your own router.

I am, also. Glad I'm not alone (even though I use Unblock-US DNS (NZ) servers). facebook and instagram won't load, but twitter does.

 

In Petone on cable.

dns seems to be an unrelated issue, but probably a combined fault of the lot.

 

 

 

any2ix dying again, and not falling over to a backup route really isn't the best..

 

 

 

Should probably have made it clear in my OP, I'm on DSL, auckland

 

over 3G also seems to fail.

Christchurch cable down for me too. Was already using alternative dns. Vodafone mobile is fine.

Vodafone dedicated corporate connections had a DNS problem as well. I was on a conference call between a corporate connection (a colleague), myself on 2 degrees fiber, and a company overseas. My connection on Skype and Go2Meeting were rock solid, but the Vodafone connection was laggy and DNS stopped working.
