I'm switch from VM if they don't fix this fast.

internet without imgur doesn't seem complete.

what utter **** added it to the block list...

obvious it's blocked just so happens a bunch of torrent websites stop working at the same time....

Imgur has been working fine for me all day. Could it be some sort of DNS issue? I'm using one VM DNS and either a Google or OpenDNS on my router (which is also a DNS cache). Maybe you could try with the IP address?

If that doesn't work, then it's something screwed up in VMs routing.

I wouldn't be so sure on that. I can't access imgur but i can access torrent sites that loads of others are having issues with today. It seems to be affecting different people randomly.
 
None of the sites i know of that are affected are hosted by Godaddy. Imgur for example dumped godaddy 4 years ago because of their support for SOPA.

still doesnt work on open dns.

but that's set from in the pcs network settings since the superhub seems to not have any option for changing the dns it's probably over riding my opendns settings?


anyway if I can access it with hola then it's simply blocked?

Hi,

Can someone please tell me which attenuator I need to adjust my power levels, over the past week they seem to be dropping more by the day. (was -1,-2 at the beginning of the week) or is an engineer needed as I notice the SNR has dropped less than 35db

thanks.

Get an engineer for that. Something needs tweaking in your local cabinet.
 
thanks spoffle works great :)

EDIT
imgur is working now
No problem! I've had this issue before. I don't think they're blocking it, at least not on purpose anyway.

As above, this has happened before. If it happens again use the filmot.com mirror.

You'll never get an engineer!

Is there any news on the next wave of speed upgrades or anything like that to look forward to? any new tiers? the mass progression seems to have slowed down recently
 
I think it's supposed to be 100, 200 and 300Mb.

There's been testing done for 200Mb in some areas, I assume anyone below 100Mb will be moved up to 100Mb, anyone between 100 and 152 will be moved to 200, and 152Mb will be moved to 300Mb.

It's supposedly to be rolled out at the end of the year, at least that would be the start of the roll out.
 
They tested all the tiers recently. The doubling is 50>100, 100>200, 152>300, or at least that's what they tested.

Hopefully they have something up their sleeves with upload speed as on the tests people were only getting ~320mb down and 15mb up.

I really hope they do, I could do with a 30Mb upload.
