Clicksilver just died...

    About 10 minutes ago I got disconnected from clicksilver and have been unable to log back onto it, even after a reboot. It timeouts at the "Verifying username and password" stage as it doesn't get a response.

    Is this happening for anyone else?

    Just posted on the utv support group:

    ''Our support team have been getting reports of some customers having problems
    connecting to our RoI ADSL service (including getting invalid username and
    password), our engineers have has checked all network systems and have found
    that the fault is not located within our network.

    Since we completed our internal checks we have been made aware that third
    party engineers are investigating the fault as it seems to be located within
    their infrastructure.

    I will post more details as I get them''

    I'm on the Douglas Exchange in Cork and Clicksilver is still down here. Is the entire Clicksilver BB network down?

    Was connected again to IOL for ooh maybe 20 minutes there.
    Seems to be that time of the month again :rolleyes:

    I think the MSN messenger thing is probably seperate, I saw something in the news the other day about Microsoft having problems.

    Given that everyone bar some Esat exchanges are reselling eircom radsl/adsl , is this down to a certain area of the country or just for certain ISP's ?

    No problems on Netsource tonight and don't see any eircom customers (so far) saying that they are disconnecting?

    Have a weather station?, why not join the Ireland Weather Network - http://irelandweather.eu/

    because you enjoy supporting the people that have Irish internet connectivity in an atrocious state? or you just dont know any better..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 856 ✭✭✭andrew163


    Clicksilver is dead for me, as is UTV dialup (so I cant check the newsgroups :rolleyes: )


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,943 ✭✭✭Mutant_Fruit


    i'm with Irishbroadband, and so far the only problems i've had is that I've had hit and miss access with MSN messenger. Also pings are awall. Download speeds are still good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,483 ✭✭✭Töpher


    Yeah but they dont resell Eircon's package...! Its a bloody conspiracy! I've a frickin clan match in 15 mins! ACK!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,394 ✭✭✭jonski


    Just got of the phone to UTV support ,

    It's outside their network so there is nothing they can do about it and don't know when it will be back up again .

    Odd I pay for the service so when it doesn't work I pick up the phone and ask why and for how long . If UTV pay for the service , how come they can't do the same ?

    John.

    I'm on Douglas, Cork exchange too. I rang UTV to ask what the story was, they werent aware that clicksilver was down... or at least didn't seem to be. Didn't really want to bother helping me to troubleshoot either... I might aswell be talking to the wheelie bin outside as ringing utv support these days. Hardly confidence inspiring.
