    Big time, mate. Big time. Is that these hackers again? I heard they caused a bit of grief for Twitter.

    I lost access for about 25 minutes.

    Me too unfortunately. The connection was fine. It was the peering or some internal link on Eircom's network which was down.

    Mine was down for about an hour at that time. Don't think it was the DNS DOS attack as I use Open DNS and it still didn't work, neither did the eircom dns servers. However it did look like a problem with the DNS though.

    Yeh I also use Open DNS and it was down for about 45 minutes. Router did report DNS issues but switching back to failcom's didn't fix anything.
