yeah so the name pretty much sums it up, from what i can see, every internet connection i try has the same problem, even my vodem, which im on now.

the only websites i can get on are ones hosted in nz, which would suggest to me that its an international issue, but some nz ones dont.


these are the only websites i can get on:

http://student.papanui.school.nz/portal/

http://www.geekzone.co.nz/

http://www.metroinfo.org.nz/

http://www.vodafone.co.nz/

http://www.telecom.co.nz/homepage

and gmail worked once.

facebook and twitter say this page is unavailable and so does youtube D;

ive reset the modem, but i cant see it because its in dads room, so i had to use the main power switch to do so :P

D: im really getting sick of this, slinghsot, telecom, WHOEVERS FULT THIS IS.

i actual feel like crying im so pissed off D;

i hope this posts. ill coppy it to the clipbord just in case, its 1:17am -____-

I'm experiencing the same as you.

It seems I can access any NZ hosted web sites, but international stuff is totally dead.

Funnily enough, I'm also on the 25GB SS plan.

Glad it's not just me.

There appears to be an international connectivity issue with some ISP's.

The discussion is here so I will lock this thread.
