Manchester proxy

When did the buggers re-install the Manchester proxies?

Netools shows I am now on cache4-bagu.server.ntli.net

No wonder I have probs getting to some of my fave sites

Re: Manchester proxy

I noticed about a week ago that browsing was strangely slow, and looked and there were the proxies again - They appear to be different hardware this time, and lets hope that they can cope with the demand better

Re: Manchester proxy

Already had problems the other morning was able to use MIRC, MSN ICQ or anything through the internet aslong as I didn't try to surf webpages none would load. They was working again a little later in the day. Lets hope it was just a hiccup and not the proxies showing they are not reliable.

I did post a link to some *free proxys* you could use on the NTL service a few weeks back (before i formatted my hard drive to re-install xp pro) unfortunatly i cant find the post to re-post the link again as the link is handy favourite to keep if you have any NTL proxy problems.

thats a good idea but these proxies are supposed to be bomb proof design according to some of our NTL friends

I found the free proxy link 8o)

I think good information & links should be kept for future reference instead of getting burried.

Re: Manchester proxy

The proxies have been back up for a while now (at least a month), well for us down in Stoke anyway (cache4-bagu...) keep having to change proxies away from the default every now and again as browsing goes to a crawl.

WTF? Proxies are back in Manchester!!!!

I went to a site i wanted to download something from. They only allow a certain number of downloads per IP (for obvious reasons) per day.

And it said: Sorry 62.252.192.4! Only 10 downloads per day!

Please visit us tomorrow.

WTF? That isnt my IP. So, I make sure I have no proxy set in IE. I don't.

I then said...OH NO, surely ntl havent turned default proxies on in Manchester (war coming up, i see it now)....

The proof of the pudding came when i checked a proxy lookup.

Oh no....
