Internet Playing Up

purt

Our internet has been playing up this morning. Some sites like MSE I can access quite easily and they load at normal speed. Other sites such as AOL and some applications on Facebook don't load at all or the connection times out. BBC site runs fine but the likes of Betfair takes forever to load.

We're on a wireless network and there doesn't seem to be any problems with the set up. The speed seems fine.

Anyone any ideas what might be causing it?

I use an Apple Mac but we have a PC as well. Problem occurs on both!

Only time will tell - and let's hope it's short;) - but if the problem is indeed temporary (and sounds as though it is) then it could just be an outage at the ISP's end; not really much one can do about that IME. Except complain.

Oh, and by outage I do indeed mean temporary blips in the connectivity...some sites work, others don't etc.

One thing I would suggest is to plug in an Ethernet cable into one of the laptops and see what happens...same problem, then see above;).

HTH.

Facebook is really glitchy this morning for me too - just one of those things.

Try later to see if that resolves things

Wish I had read this earlier my mcafee site advisor isnt working, and the security centre it cant update itself because it says I am not connected to the internet when I am!! Also I can get on some sites and not others...... thought it was just me.... uninstalled and reinstalled mcafee and been fiddling about for ages :rotfl:yep should have looked here first :rotfl:
