DNS problems

[boerseun]

Is anyone else experiencing DNS problems intermittently? I am having issues with some internations domains, mostly porn sites, which is pissing me off badly.....

I cant access my US servers. I have a SAIX account but tried a friends IS account and it worked fine. I think its mainly SAIX thats having the issue.

You can use OpenDNS servers, 208.67.222.222 & 208.67.220.220. Just pop them into your TCP/IP Configuration as your DNS servers on your network card. They are very reliable.

Doubt that. That would kill/slow down a website or two at a time - not a seemingly random bunch of them like now.

Damn. And I was just shouting at my US hosts because I can't get my mail or FTP to my server.

Strange, I can see my websites, but not get my mail.

I'm also hosted in the US - Cannot see any of them. Not even email.

Edit: My Friend is on Cybersmart .... All These sites work 100% on his side.
Facebook, my sites, etc etc

I wonder if somewhere the power is out?

My domain is hosted internationally to and I cant ping my server. SAIX account.

Hi,

I think the problem is:

Certain service providers making us of certain bandwidth providers are still accessible - it's not all US / international sites.

 

[QRator]

hmmm ... damn ... that has obviously affected some of our routing.

The world is falling apart. Power outages, internet disasters, near asteroid collisions with the earth... I'm expecting to see a bright star in the sky and three wise men any day now.

Whatever the problem is I can't connect to World of Warcraft at all. Friend on iBurst can connect without any problems so it seems to be specifically ADSL related.

I'm on Cybersmart and Axxess, no Facebook or World of Warcraft on either....moerdonderflip
