Outage 23 Feb @ 13:45
Outage 23 Feb @ 13:45
It looks like routing outside of Exetel (at least for me, in Sydney) is broken as of about 13:45 on 23 Feb 2012.
Can't access anything except for Extel servers.
Anyone else seeing this? Any status updates on this?

Yeah - broken here too. Can get Exetel, Internode's site, SMH and Google is on and off...
Just also had a call from another business to ask about it - we believe they are on Telstra Direct, although they MAY have moved to Exetel (not 100% sure - we discussed the idea with them about 18 months ago). Getting similar things there.
Edit: I'm in Narrabri, northwest NSW.
Edit2: Worst part - can't get to Whingepool! How am I supposed to whinge!

Came back for a couple of minutes, then died again.
I saw a big pond user drop off irc a minute or two before me. Looking at Exetel traffic graphs, it looks like the outage is on multiple links. Both NSW Optus and NSW Verizon show a sharp drop off. Perhaps the internets are clogged?

Re: Outage 23 Feb @ 13:45
Yes here in the hunter i just started getting DNS errors after 2.00pm.
Re: Outage 23 Feb @ 13:45
I regained partial connectivity using Google's public DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 btw) but those are now inaccessible too.

Re: Outage 23 Feb @ 13:45
Yeah, same here at Gosford. Facebook is completely out along with SMH. ABC and Google think about it...
Re: Outage 23 Feb @ 13:45
Same problem here in central Vic
Re: Outage 23 Feb @ 13:45
Being without Google doesn't bother me nearly as much as not having ssh access to work git server, the night before a major software release.

Problem here at Eastwood, NSW too. Probably last 1/2 hour at least.
Re: Outage 23 Feb @ 13:45
iiNet have the same issue and flagged it as "Issue is believed to be related to a upstream routing issue."
Can't get from Exetel to Telstra, so I would not be surprised if this was a Telstra problem.
