Hi There!

Seems to be something majorly broken with DNS queries across a few ISP's. Anyone else seen this or have any information as to the cause.

I have had a BUNCH of clients unable to reach ASB and a few other sites today, those addresses just aren't present in any of the DNS servers they use as default.

Have setup a few sites with DNS forwarders to 8.8.8.8 temporarily which has worked.

Vodafone DNS looks normal, Double checking with a freshly flushed isolated circuit seems fine for ASB and the subdomains of theirs that come to mind.

Any more examples to try?

We've had no issues here, or with any of our clients, today.

Maybe the DIA filter servers are acting up.

Not having any problems, nor have clients reported any. I also use ASB daily. Who are the ISPs? Maybe they are just different brands under the same parent?

Yes ASB seem to have changed their IP at some stage today

In the end we had to flush the DNS cache on a clients site and all came right
