Can't access site from home
mookaloid - 17/11/05 at 10:14 AM

I can access this site from work ok but for the last 2 days I haven't been able to get to it from my home PC.

Obviously the DNS isn't working somewhere as it says site not found and neotrace can't find it either. I have rebooted my PC but it makes no difference. Everything else is working ok, email other internet etc.

Any ideas anyone?

Cheers

Mark

Only slightly helpful answer: put 84.234.16.100 in your hosts file?

another thing to try:

from a command line type "Ipconfig /flushdns"

At home now - just started working!

This problem was caused by a member of the SovEx Internet exchange incorrectly announcing some BGP routes that didn't belong to them to Netrino, the company that host this site. All of our /19 block of IP addresses were also unable to access the site for the past couple of days

That would account for it

Thanks for letting me know Andy
