Hi guys.

Is Orcon down to you as well? I've been trying to call their support for the past hour but no luck. Also, their Twitter account and their network status page aren't showing anything.

I have Fibre in Auckland.

Cheers,
Lucas

Slingshot also seems to have problems, I can connect to overseas sites but few nz ones. Only way to access GZ is to switch to mobile data
Predictably enough, the network status page says no problems

Thanks! At least isnt just me, as Slingshot is also part of the same group.
The annoying part is their support is not picking up the phone. I'm switching to SPARK for sure.

Looks like other providers are having the same problem. Maybe a chorus fault?
