Resolved - Can't connect to RS

[peterworks]

Is there a problem with rs.hpkg.tv as I am unable to connect this morning. It shows 'connecting to rs.hpkg.tv' then times out.

Fine here.

Thanks BH - will restart the modem/router and see if that fixes it (though other sites, including this one, appear okay)

Still having some time outs though does connect at times - presume must be a network problem (rumours have it that Plus Net's DNS leaves something to be desired).

 

[peterworks]

Just received a status email from Plus Net stating they are having network problems so will 'resolve' this thread

I haven't had any DNS problems since changing to OpenDNS (with G00gl3 as a backup). PN's were always going wrong.

Thanks prpr - I have set up the router with OpenDNS (both primary and secondary). Will bear in mind the G00gl3 option as secondary if I come across any problems unless you think it worth doing immediately.
Bye the bye pages DO seem to load more quickly but perhaps this is wishfull thinking
