    [font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Hi, for the last few days I have experiencing issues with very slow downloads / failed connections with downloading from apple websites - eg ios software updates, App Store updates, etc. other websites such as [/font][font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]boards.ie[/font][font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] are fine[/font]

    [font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]the weird thing is that I can temporarily fix it by using a vpn.  Wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? Is it perhaps a peering issue at eir’s end? Have tried changing my dns to google’s dns but that hasn’t made a difference.[/font]

    [font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Thanks in advance[/font]

    Changing DNS won't fixing a routing problem, but using a VPN could. So, it probably is some kind of back end peering issue. My OH works from home and had a lot of problems yesterday. I think it's better today though.
