Broadband Outage in Kildare / 045 Area?

    I'm having a problem with Vodafone / eircom wholesale broadband in Kildare / 045 area.

    Since last night, vodafone broadband has been out for me, DSL Sync light is solid and internet light shows as red. It's like PPPOE is just not working at all.

    Tried three different routers last night, even reset one to factory defaults and configured it from scratch.

    Called Vodafone this morning and they told me to reset the username and password for the connection, (was previously a BTBB customer, so reset to vodafone@vodafone.com / broadband). Still no joy.

    Wife called up again since and was advised by support in Vodafone that we had a 'stale connection' and to turn off the router for 35 mins, then start it up again. Still no joy.

    Third call and they're only now hearing 'unconfirmed reports' of a possible outage in the 04 area.

    Anyone else having trouble?

    Pretty widespread outage in Kildare last night from about 6pm yesterday evening to about 2am this morning. I was suprised I didn't see it here sooner. I'd clients in Maynooth, Kilcock, Naas, Sallins, Newbridge down.
    All reported solid DSL light with either a red or no internet light.

    A call to Eircom this morning confirmed a fault in Kilcock was responsible but a subsequent call and they denied any fault had occured :rolleyes:

    Called Vodafone last night about this and they said there was "unconfirmed reports" of an outage in the 045 area. They logged my call as a fault and said they would SMS me when the issue was resolved.
    Didn't get the SMS but did get a call back today saying there was an outage and it lasted until 1.10 this morning.
    Working fine since.

    Internet tubes are gone again! If Kilcock is the problem there are some heavy roadworks going on over there at the moment (careless dude and digger springs to mind), will have to log a call in the morn with vodafone, almost looking forward to the lame excuse!!

    Still no broadband services in Kilcullen as of yesterday approx 6pm. Calls to support all with same success "fault is being looked at and no estimate of when will be fixed"

    Mine was the same was out from around 6 pm on 11th, but was back up an running yesterday morning. Vodafone support gave me a call back to say there was an outage in the 045 area and it was now fixed. But it was back off again last night at around 9.30 pm. Didn't try this morning but the internet light was back lit on the modem.

    Eircom broadband out in Sallins on Mon from 5pm to 11pm at least and Tue night from 6pm to 11.30pm, was back this morning (Wed). DLS light was green, internet light was red.

    I thought it was a problem with my router, I reset it and then had to reset my wireless connections on games consoles which was a pain.
