    Their DNS servers are down. Change your DNS to Google and it'll work fine
    8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

    Just off the phone from Vodafone after 48 mins on hold. Massive outage in the country, 2,000 customers affected. It is being worked on I’m told. Pity they couldn’t post on their forum or Twitter to advise us.

    One of those statements is untrue (not saying its you Camper).

    2000 subs is a single large exchange, thats an annoying outage but not unusual. The way its geographically disparate sounds like core kit like a RAS or their DNS cluster.

    Ha! Yeah, she said different areas around the country and she called it a massive outage. To be fair it is a rare occurrence but none the less a message should have been put out on social channels or on their phone service when people were ringing in. Strange thing was some sites were working independent.ie being one. Boards or Rte wasn’t so I was using cellular data to have a moan on here...
