moon Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 Hurdy PM'd me at the Pit. He can't get back either. Can somebody knowledgeable fill him in ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvw Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 http://www.by-users.co.uk/faqs/proxyservers/I think it was andsome's proxy server that caused his problem, although I'm not certain moon.The link above is helpful, especially if Hurdy is with Blueyonder or NTL.

andsome Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 The contact at NTL broadband helpline led me through putting in a proxy server. This worked OK. He said that my existing proxy server must have a problem, and he would report it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurdy Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 Thanks Moon for the post and for your replies.As you can see I'm back in.Don't ask me how :P I tried the NTL hellpline (sic) but they were clueless as to what I was talking about.As useful as me on a helpline I suppose, anyway I clicked the link today and it worked.I don't question these things I just accept them. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moon Posted November 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 Welcome back. I guess the server pages eventually got refreshed. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 The problem with NTL is that each area is a franchise, so support will vary from are to area. I have always found the South Staffordshire area telephone helpline staff to be very knowledgeable and helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andsome Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 NTL have obviously updated the local proxy now. I tried my old settings a couple of days ago and still got the temp page. This morning I have tried them again, and all is back to normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
