Obskure

Vodafone down in Ballina, Mayo too. On Opera mini now. Rang customer care and no mention of the 096 area being affected. PITA! I registered dor a call back just to let them know I'm not happy

darkside71

Down in Celbridge as well... using my 3 phone as a backup and it's flying!
Did anyone try to call the customer services number, I did and went thru various options, then finally selected press 2 for technical department, which I did only to be cut off... did this twice and got the same results...

:mad:FFS I AM PEEDED OFF! I SWITCHED FROM PERLICO TO vodafone LAST OCTOBER AND AM HAVING CONSTANT TROUBLE .I AM IN EAST MEATH.:mad:

PauloMN

Down also here in Trim, Co.Meath - even though 046 area is not included in their list of affected areas on the pre-recorded message. Mind you, neither is 01 and I see lots of Dublin posters above.

Tried getting through to customer support - no joy.

It was down for the last hour here. It wasn't accepting the internet username and password. Speed is very slow though.

matsy1

Grudle

Down in Saggart too.

fryer99

Down in Mullingar, I rang Customer service a few times and got cut off and eventually a message saying that fixed line customer service go home at 8. Eventually got talking to Customer Service from mobile section. The girl told me that the service was now down across the country and that technicians are working on it but last she heard it wouldn't be back til morning!

Tuvok

It seems to be down for 10 mins or so then back up again for 10 minutes.

Probably took a half day .Whats with this lot anyway.Would sell you the stars to get you in and then feed you crap.They told me I had a line fault twice and I hadnt but still they waffle on.I have told them I am out off here in regards to the next bill and quick off the horse "WELL YOU WILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH OUR LEGAL TEAM" Bring it on I said ,Over 40 calls to you in relation to your service in less than three months.

macuser56

It's gone in north Wicklow too. Plus tech support at Vodafone shuts at 8pm

I have a green dsl light on my modem indicating that the signal is there, but my modem won't log in, showing that this is a Vodafone issue and not a line issue.

Abelloid

Yeah, down here too. Cobh.

Sofiztikated

Was down in Cavan as well. Not sure now, herself stopped trying, and I'm in work.

To be honest, I'm just realizing how slow their 3Mb package is!!! my 3 mobile connection response time is amazing compared to their offering... and I'm hardwired into their router using ethernet cables... to be fair it's only the 2nd time they have gone down on me... but I have noticed an awful big drop off in speed and response time recently... best of luck with your dealing with them... I hope it works out for you...

foggy_lad

gone in carlow too but just came back.

did anyone else get a strange phone call just after theirs came back with nothing only a dial tone when you answered? (by dial tone i mean it sounded like a number being redialled)

i had no internets or phone during the outage!

medelina

was down when about 7 in limerick but came back. down again now. bulls**t service, had more trouble in a few weeks vodafone than 3 years with bt

Duiske

Was down here in Co. Carlow. Back now, but with max speed of 0.64Mb.

fryer99

Back up in Mullingar

PauloMN

Back in Trim (for the time being).

Earth Traveller

It's very slow in Blackrock, County Dublin too. I am getting a download speed of 0.63 Mb/s and am paying for 8 Mb/s! Eventually got through to Vodafone mobile desk and they are blaming the weather conditions. If that is the case, how come other providers don't seem to have the same problem?

medelina

back up in limerick. my complaining here obviously did the trick

wush06

Back up and running in clondalkin. But overall not happy with vodafone will give them one or two more weeks to sort it out and if not im gone.

foggy_lad

it looked more like DNS problems and to have them blame the weather is not very good at this stage it sounds like they are getting ready to prevent people asking to be compensated.

pissed

Guess I was one of the lucky ones, mine did not go. Living in Ashbourne. Brother in laws did and he lives here too. Just checked my speeds and im down to 0.7mb on a 7mb connection. Come back BT

Rockin

Vodafone broadband down all evening, back online now in Cork

god's toy

Yep Rathdrum, WIicklow get knocked off the bb at around 8 ish too. came back about an hr larter.

dogpile

Getting a bit sick of Vodafone now, first 3 months after I got speed was fine at any time ..now once it hit 6pm this about the average of it


gaming??? forget it, might aswell have stayed with Ripwave ffs!

_Kaiser_

Glad it wasn't just me then at least.

I'm another BT customer who's been transferred, but so far the speed seems ok.. I do have to reset the modem (3Com officeconnect router that's been fine with BT for years) a lot though since I was moved (a week early I might add).
Is this a common problem?

Oh semi-related.. would I be better off changing the DNS entries to Google's servers?

homer911

Gee, I spent ages on this yesterday evening thinking it was something I had done!

My Vodafone router gave no errors, but gave no IP address

I swapped to my Eircom Netopia router and that, sensibly, gave me a red light for the internet (with correct connection details!)

rayobrien08

Vodafone have an issue sine yesterday evening engineers are on site working to resolve but no timeframe is available seems to be autentation (un and Pw failing)

knm

Down in Castlebar, Mayo since about 8 Monday night. Now after lunch Tuesday - still down. Got through to Customer Support - they said it was Authentication problem - 24/48 hours - maybe longer. They l blame Eircom.

foggy_lad

gone again in carlow for a while this afternoon

ejmaztec

My Vodafone broadband has been complete sh1te or non-existent for the past 12 days, and it would be great if I knew who to blame. Vodafone tells me that there's a fault on the line screwing with the dsl, and the local 068 exchange tells me that there's nothing wrong. The line-check has been done four times now, all with the same result.

I get the impression that the Eircom bunch are being a bit obstructive (I can think of a better word).

Couldn't post this straight away, as the feckin thing was down while I was in the middle of it:mad:

therewillbe

I got a mate to check it for me in eircom and no problem their end.

Sofiztikated

Was up this morning before I went to work, but speeds were attrocious! Got a D rating on the pingtest.net on a Galway server, and speedtest.net was showing about 2 meg d/l, with a ping of 64, and a .34 upload. This is the 7 meg line.

With BT up until a few weeks ago, and got a contant almost 7, pings of 30 odd, no jitter, and very little packet loss, if any!

Not impressed. Not impressed at all.

therewillbe

Avg of 0.9 all day today:mad: WTF is going on with this shower.Buy out Perlico&Bt and give us crap.

I'm the same as you , one vodafone tech actually told me that a 80 ms ping is average i laughed at him, during the day my speed and ping is fine bt once it goes past 6 pm i drop from 5.5mb to 1 mb and my ping doubles and sometimes triples.
I've been on the vodafone facebook page where i was told to contact vodafone paul on here or else log on to the vodafone forums, lol still waiting for paul to get back to me and the vodafone forums i was unable to register.
They are a right joke,missing bt.

dogpile

Yep this is a f***king joke now






Come back Ripwave all is forgiven :rolleyes:

foggy_lad

i have found that when i use my old eircom router or the vodafone zxyzell one there is no broadband at all but using the god awful chinese import huweaii modem i at least can get some kind of connection however slow it is and i can do without all the pictures loading as long as i have some connection!

was on the phone to vodafone who told me that eircom are to blame as vodafone only rent the lines etc from eircom but that they are working on having this fixed this week basically.
