At around 18:20 tonight I started to get internet issues with some sites being impossible to access.

For instance I can't access:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/
http://www.google.com/

But I can get to:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/
http://discussions.apple.com/
http://www.engadget.com/
http://www.firstdirect.com/

If I try to Ping or do a Traceroute to the sites I can't access they get know where at all, the pings fail and traceroute just stalls at 10.93.144.1 it get no further.

I have rebooted router and modem. It can't be a local issue as many sites work fine when others do nothing at all.

The problem has just resolved itself at 19:08, something strange somewhere in Virgin Media world!

---------- Post added at 19:15 ---------- Previous post was at 19:10 ----------

I spoke too soon.....

While I can now get to new.bbc.co.uk other sites are not accessible :-

www.firstdirect.com
www.ebay.co.uk
www.macuser.co.uk

While these are OK :-

store.apple.com/uk
www.abercrombie.co.uk
www.pocruises.com

It is all very hit and miss.

My Yahoo mail is also not working in my mail application, it cannot access the Yahoo mail server, and yet my other email accounts are working fine.

There appears to be a partial failure to find sites, maybe it is a DNS issue?

news.bbc.co.uk is also gone again now, what the hell is going on Virgin?
There is also a 10 minute wait on the customer service fault line!

Here is an example of a bad and good traceroute.

Bad - www.macuser.co.uk

Traceroute has started…

traceroute to www.macuser.co.uk (212.100.242.152), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets
1 10.0.1.1 (10.0.1.1) 7.600 ms 0.973 ms 0.924 ms
2 10.93.144.1 (10.93.144.1) 11.208 ms 29.428 ms 42.343 ms
3 * * *
4 * * *

It never completes.

Better - www.waterstones.com

Traceroute has started…

traceroute to www.waterstones.com (91.103.170.141), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets

15 * *

But as you can see it still fails to fully resolve. I'm also not sure what the no-dns-yet entries mean!

Pages sometimes load and other times don't. The most variable is news.bbc.co.uk it is on and off all the time at the moment.

I've been getting an intermittent service all day. This morning Mailwasher kept bleating that it couldn't find the email server.

It seems to be fixed now. Not sure what was wrong.
