Ebay down, downforeveryorjust me also down!

YOU I opened both fine

Me too, some sites are working fine though? 😕

I get this:

Redirecting you to http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/

and nothing else.
Same for ebay

so is this not the internets?

Yes, BBC, youtube, here are fine.
Say ‘Cannot find ….’ DNS down somewhere?

Nothing at all here, everything dead.

Oops! Google Chrome could not find www.ebay.co.uk

Try reloading: http://www.­ebay.­co.­uk

Youtube OK though

I think DNS fubarred somewhere.

cant get eBay.co.uk or .com but downforeveryone says it’s just me.

on chrome I just get long Resolving Host notification before no load. Same on IE. And multiple devices.

Other sites loading but taking longer time (“Resolving Host”) to load too.

Ahhh interesting…same thing on BOTH of our lines here. BBC fine, ebay down…others variable. Both of our connections are with BT. How about you?

Change yer DNS settings to Google’s public ones:

8.8.8.8
4.4.4.4

On a mac this is done by:

system preferences > network > advanced > DNS tab > enter the above > hit ok

oh, and long name resolution delays here too…oh noes! The Interwebs is broken!!! 🙂

I’m on BT.
Downforeveryone still not working

I dont think one can change the DNS servers for Bt Homehub can you?

Problems with BT DNS here too. Switching to Google DNS as Jamie suggests fixes it for me.

BT dead here too, PITA that you can’t change it on the HH

I dont think one can change the DNS servers for Bt Homehub can you?

I think you’re right. I had an old laptop that still had OpenDNS set up, I had to reset it to auto when we changed to BT a few weeks ago.

On BT here.

downforeveryone not working either.

Whats this google DNS alternative, saw it the other day in my settings somewhere. Is it better?

Same here. Amazon dead, Mumsnet 😳 dead, autotrader too.

I can’t log on to MyBT, so maybe this is related.

Yes, helpfully the BT help site is also el-deado 😀 Anyway according to the partially working twitter feed it looks like a national problem

Are we doomed? Off to panic buy bottled water and tinned beans…

If anyone needs anything googling, or buying from Amazon, let me know. £10 a search/item bought 😈

…oh, and well done BT for locking users out of your DNS settings. Not backfiring at all.

anyone using a chromebook can change name servers very easily (I know it’s easy coz I just did it! ) by clicking on through to the wireless network connection, selecting the Network tab and choosing the Google Name servers.

Unfortunately I cant find a way of doing it on chrome running on a PC.

All the above fine here. PlusNet.

Yep thats where I saw it, had to click my current wireless connection to find the network tab.

ebay now works for me 🙂

And sites seem to load faster than they have for a while?!

On BT.

Amazon and Ebay dead.

Amazon.co.uk dead..Amazon.com still alive

downforme is actually dead too

It’s my fault…I am trying to set up a linux server at moment and I think I accidentally deleted bits of the internet whilst ssh

Can someone explain to an idiot (me) why I can get on some sites but not others?

some bt overpaid monkey has torn the pages out of the BT Internet’s big telephone directory and lost them.

Fortunately there’s other directories, like Thomson and Yellow Pages, that you can use while BT type up a new one.

I would google the answer but…

Chinese cyber attack?

Damn Communists, after my precious bodily fluids!

twitter went down for me about 9.30am, not earth shattering but i was having a conversation wi a bunch of hungover mates at glasto, a few other websites are down as well. I bet it’s aliens……..

How is STW?

STW is still old skool clockwork, i imagine a bunch of immigrant hamsters are powering the stw office wheel while Chipps has tethered a few parakeets to the wind turbine on the roof but i believe Andy Armstrong is working on a new site………

All ok for us Virgins

On BT Infinity here but using google DNS. Lots of sites not available.

Whatchaonabooot, the main sites are still working ok, chillax bro’s 😆

I’m on BT infinity as well and having the same problem

Some sites a broken for me too. Bt broadband here
