Martyn, the fact that one of the users with a problem uses NTL may be a clue - NTL force the use of transparent caches (one of the reasons I ditched them).

You may want to ask which ISPs the users with problems connect through.

I haven't been able to connect to bb since the day before yesterday and i was having intermittent problems before that, is it just me or is the problem still being looked at by the server support people?
cheers :)

No. Obviously not just you, but Martyn has said it's an ongoing thing and he is trying to sort it. I guess we all just trust in that and let's face it, it's his forum and in his interest to do so. ;)

If you've not been able to get on for a couple of days it's not just BB, i've been on there a few times today

I think it is work in progress. No consolation in the short term, but I am sure Martyn is as keen as anyone to get it sorted.

I'm sure it's all being sorted, i just thought it would be worth checking in case i was missing something as Colin KC had posted this afternoon saying everything seemed fine now.

Oh dear, i hope not, i'm fine for everything else, it's just bb, like a few others i've been having some problems lately but i haven't been able to connect atall since about the time Martyn said the server people were looking at the problem.

Still giving me grief. :(

Anyone else? :confused:
Fine for me again now. I don't understand why I couldn't get on for more than a look until I posted or replied to a PM then got cut off either, and even less why it suddenly started working fine again.
From the sound of it Martyn is on the case, just don't bruise your head on the wall in the meantime ;)

Had exactly the same problem for about a week. I found that if I left the post I wanted to send on the screen for an hour or so without doing anything else on the site and sent it again it would often send.
Have to say, I don't envy Martyn keeping BB going. I remember when I was doing the NHS thing and the last thing I wanted to come home to was more hassle. All credit to the man, especially when he seems to do a sterling job as a mod here looking at the Abbe leaving thread to name just one.
Can we leave mods rep? - I guess so. :rolleyes:
