Any issues on Vodafone DSL this morning ?

ondafly

Morning !

From home (vodafone DSL) I was unable to access kotaku.com, facebook, twitter, gmail partially loaded , but I could connect to boards.ie, rte.ie (irish sites). I did a tracert on kotaku and it dropped on the 4th hop, but picked up again 2 hops later, and then just dropped completely. I'm using google DNS and it had no issues doing lookups.

I'm now in work (eircom ISP), also using google DNS, and all of the above sites work fine. Just curious if its a vodafone router issue ? or if anyone else is having issues.

Same issue in the midlans with Vodafone. I'm not happy and this better be sorted out soon.
Just entered into a contract with them. Im an Ejjit.

Edit: Using OpenDns done nothing. Still no sites working properly outside of ie domain. Even the ie domain loads slow.
FUUUUUUUUUUUU

MacGyver

im having the same issue, on vodafone based in waterford. comes as no surprise its a vodafone issue. time to get off my arse and move to someone more reliable.

pricewise987

im having the same issue, on perlico based in kerry

antonian

Yes ondafly, I'm having a similar experience on Vodafone (Co. Laois). I can get into Gmail fine and most .ie sites but anything else fails completely.

exaisle

Same here (Brittas Co Dublin exchange).

Im on Vodafone but cant access any sites outside of ireland. Noticed first when my internet radio couldnt access BBC...

Is this just a Vodafone issue or is it all ISPs?

Cyclonius

Same experience here in Cavan on Vodafone.

Javan

Same. I'm on Perlico in the midlands. Some Irish and UK sites are working OK but most of the net seems inaccessible.

Someone in Vodafone mess up a routing table?

Cal

Yup. Vodafone Dublin very limited service here this morning.

falan

Ditto on Vodafone fixed broadband, in Trim Co. Meath.

Not unless they were working at 5am....which id have thought was unlikely...

PauloMN

Check out the upload speed!

Whitehawk

Same here in Dublin -- with Vodafone and most sites wont load...

Anyone know/can findout, how long its going to be till this is sorted?

exaisle

As i typed, it seems to have returned to (ab)normal....

Shlippery

Aye, same problems, on Vodafone in Tuam...decided to wreck my head and go playing with settings and crap, at least I know I ain't the only one suffering! I'm not sure why only Boards.ie and google and a few other sites work...

exaisle

The problem seems to be with .uk sites...I can access US and european sites but not (for example) bbc.co.uk

They are .ie domains. We seem to be on a limited network that doesn't get the rest of the world. OR maybe the rest of the world doesn't get us. We have been cast out. Stripped of our crappy social networking sites and news sites besides RTE(shudder).

ondafly

so I'm not alone

Its a router issue alright, dunno who's router though

ondafly

btw in future - this is a useful site to help you troubleshoot

Not our routers by the looks of things.....my guess is that somewhere somebody was doing a nixer in a JCB on the quiet and......ahem!

ShiverinEskimo

Can't get play.com, speedtest.net at all. Facetube and the beeb are intemittent as is twitter.

On Eircom meself using openDNS.

Mike...

Same in Roscommon beeb,fb etc all down

exaisle

Im taking a wild guess and saying that any of the intermittent/unavailable sites are UK based?

I can access speedtest.net but not facebook...but I can access youtube..

Who is your provider?
I've created a thread here for vodafone users.

vectra

Same here in Fermoy, Cork.

Whitehawk

Found this on there site...
My Vodafone at Home broadband has stopped working. Why?

We are currently carrying out essential maintenance to our network and as this is progressed, some areas may experience a temporary outage. For more information, please call customer care on 1907.

Shlippery

I can't even get Vodafones site to load! :P

phill106

Yep, vodafone in shannon ****e this morning.

MargeS

Yip, vodafone service is affected in Galway too. If I have to travel into Galway to work, I'll friggin charge Vodafone the cost of >50 miles in petrol!!! :mad:

ondafly

seems to work fine on vodafone 3G modem, but home DSL = fail

crótach

I'm not sure if this is vodafone issue only, I'm on eircom broadband (fixed line) and pretty much everything except Irish sites is inaccessible. I can get on to boards and google.ie, but can't get on EA for example.

Lookups through opendns are working fine and names are being resolved.
Traceroute shows a complete break after the xxx.dublin.eircom.net hop.

Have we been severed from the rest of the world?

EDIT: German sites work too. Someone else reported UK is working as well.

prioryc

i'm with Eircom and having the same issues some load most wont tho ...glad to know i'm not alone...suffering from ****ty service

Nuphor

Yeah, Vodafone in Mullinavat here - really patchy routing this morning. Assumed it was just me, restarted stuff a bunch of times.

travist

okay, this happened before.

i called them this morning and after explaining for 15 mins, the guy said he just got an email about this.


I am getting a refund for the time that the internet is unavailable. I suggest everyone calls vodafone and does the same. Shoddy service. Pick up your phone and call them, otherwise it will happen again in a few weeks or months.

This is not limited to Vodafone - see other threads.

Nick_oliveri

Would filter bypass sites work? Like the ones people use to access facebook in work?

Waternews

Same for me in Greystones. I'm on Vodafone.
It happened yesterday morning too, but seemed to resolve itself around 9.30 - so I thought it was just me.

At least I can get on to boards

crótach

Ah, I got it working again. Used a VPN service that I normally just use for Hulu etc, and the web is working again. A bit slower granted, but at least I can access all the sites now.

Well, Vodafone can take it up with their provider. I pay them for a service.

True - I guess your contract is with them. I was just pointing out that Vodafone ppl are not alone! Reported now across a number of ISP's/configurations etc

JohnC.

Same for me. Can't access some other countries. Although my phone, on O2, seems to have full access.

JohnC.

And a few minutes later, it's coming back

SkatesOn

It's back!

phill106

Anyone get through to vodafone? Mailed them a while ago, no acknowledgement. Called and gave up after 5 minutes on hold.

Magaa

back on BT

ShiverinEskimo

Normal service has resumed for me on Eircom.
