235131 2004-05-07 23:43:00 oh and yea my ip does go 222. >>>> Kibito (623)
235132 2004-05-07 23:43:00 I can't access that site either, my IP starts with 222.

There was some concern that some couldn't access Yahoo and CNN and some other sites a few weeks back, however those seem OK now.

Email Orcon with your problem and they may be able to do something.

Agree. But for your info i'm with Orcon on their 3G Surf plan and the site opens fine for me

235134 2004-05-07 23:45:00 Telecom advises users to contact their ISP helpdesk with the name of the site they are unable to access and their IP address, if they know it.

Well I'm sure as hell not ringing orcon over the phone and saying I can't access phpbbHACKS.com :D

I'll send them an email I guess.

235136 2004-05-07 23:48:00 Still.

I've reset my connection heaps. I still get the same ip. Unless I'm missing some special meaning to the word RESET. I just disconnect from the internet through modems config panel and reconnect.

Still same ip :/

Suggest in that case you ask Orcon to give you a new IP

235139 2004-05-07 23:54:00 You will have the same IP addy, regardless of how many times you re-connect. Orcon's Jetsurf IP's are static, that is, they allocate YOU one and it doesn't change.

There was a thread about this recently saying that they will have to bow to Telecom pressure and not provide static IPs as it facilitates server operations, but so far they Orcon changed their system.
