As title.. trying to catch up on some gaming over the long weekend.

Can't seem to log into Battle.net at all and timing out completely when trying to ping battle.net

Was fine last night but haven't been able to get on today.

Everything else seems ok though that I've noticed.

I'm trying to work from home (lower north island) and everything stopped. Reset my DNS from Google back to default and it sort of came back but slow and seems to have dropped again.

I'm having issues with logging to GW2, and when I do log in it disconnects a few mins later. Was working fine this morning.

Yup just noticed a weird international connectivity thing happen on my 2degrees connection in Auckland. NZ based sites appeared to be OK but my Synology NAS lost is quick connect (DDNS) connection and I couldn't access any international sites from any device.

Okay good to know it isn't just me. I was wondering if it was just the game as it's been having server issues lately but found it weird that the site can't be reached either.

Now that you guys mentioned it, I just checked one of my work monitors and looks like that's timed out also.

@Azhure I'm having the opposite, when I'm on default dns, I can't access most things. Currently using Google dns and that's fine for most sites but my games haha.

Something weird is happening, has been since about 14:30, still not working right at 15:30. I'm still connected to the work VPN, but some of my services such as Yolink and the doorbell camera monitoring are complaining about connectivity.

So could be an international issue then?

I seem to be up now, but before I wasn't even able to connect to one of VPNs. That VPN is now working ever since the net has come right. Hoping it doesn't go back down esp if yours is still not working properly

I have lost my 2degrees homephone yesterday, also voicemail doing strange things like emailing voicemail messages to me from "the team@ Slingshot" - I've never used Slingshot and cannot retrieve these voicemails. 2degrees advise that they have recorded my fault with a reference number but no other progress yet. Fibre internet is still working well though.

I think the VPN is to Australia, maybe it's one of the other links out of NZ having a problem.

I've had similar problems at a roughly similar time. It showed up for me as our AWS infra in us-west-2 not being able to connect to a server in NZ, which is hosted (from what I can tell) on Vocus - aka @2deg. During that timeframe, connections just timed out. I could connect fine from my Quic connection at home tho.

Its working now - and has been since about 15:06 friday. But I'm seeing a HUGE amount of packet loss going from the US to Vocus, I suspect they are still having issues somewhere (never mind, the packet loss is normal....)
