Any Aussies having trouble with overseas sites?
 

I'm on Bigpond adsl. Everything was working fine this morning, but having been out for the day I've come home to find I can only access a small percentage of overseas sites. Can't even connect to Amazon and Facebook. Most of my sites hosted in the U.S I can't access.
Just wondering if anyone else is having this happen and what isp you're on.

No dramas here Jack .

Looks like the major routers are all up too

Maybe just a Bigpond connectivity problem, but it seems a router they use (Reach.com) is down and preventing access to many U.S based sites.
For example, I can access amazon.co.uk but not amazon.com

Some customers may experience slow browsing difficulties due to a third party carrier fault. ADSL1 services are affected. TPG apologises for any inconvenience caused.

Everything just started working again for me...fingers crossed it stays up.

Yeah well thats very possible then. I am on bigpond adsl in brisbane and I havent noticed anything but I must admit I haven't been doing much surfing.

Just stopped working again...damn it!
