Paved roads are just another example of wasted tax payer dollars.
Nordie said something about "Global Gateway" might be a weak link.
Who/what are they, and who's heads do I need to bang together to get it sorted.

It certainly ain't working for me, must be a conspiracy.
I'll have to work on the bike instead!!
Happy Easter you lot.
The resident expert [ my son ] says the problem is at their end .
To those guys who can get the site, I have a question.
Is the site aware of the problem ,are there any posts re this problem?.
It should show up to them as a reduced number of hits
If there is nothing re the access could one of you contact them & alert them of the fact that a fair nember of us can't get our daily fix
Cheers , Paul

I've tried pinging it to and its failing, I can resolve it fine and have even tried using Public DNS servers instead of Telecon's to resolve and ping, same result.
I've done a traceroute and it never gets beyond the NZ dns servers so something is not happy.
I need my Advrider fix so have resorted to using a proxy site until it works again.
so try imfine.info or any other proxy site will do.

Works fine for me through a vodem connection. Fails through telescum ADSL
Ergo, Telescum have yet again fucked up their routings.
This route works (Vodafone vodem)

So, if you can't get through, ring Telescum ADSL services and abuse the shit out of them. Actually, even if you can get through, or even if you don't give a stuff about ADVRider, ring Telescum ADSL services and abuse the shit out of them anyway. They deserve it.
Be careful though , there's an awfulk lot of shit there - better have a ladder handy.

working fine via TelstraClear - neither of these two telcos peer at the peering exchanges - many smaller ISPs do - could be that Telecom has lost its upstream connection to the WWW?
odd - I'm on Telstra cable (wellington) and still can't ping either by name or number.
Tracert fails after 8 hops. Reach networks HK Ltd - Hong Kong? Maybe it's not Telecoms fault
