181918 2003-10-10 04:50:00 Have you tried connecting many times over?

Sometimes I've gotten busy signals when trying to connect, when in fact, the phoneline is completely free.

However, a busy signal would imply the problem is at your end, because if your connection was being terminated (or something) by the ISP, it would most likely say that.

If you are using a Paradise connection, why are you checking the status of Xtra's Network? Are you trying to log onto Xtra using Paradise settings?.

181920 2003-10-10 05:15:00 Ahh...I see. You are POSTING from a Paradise connection! Apologies (its been a long day)

The ISP Network is heavily software dependent. It can be less than reliable. Even though it probably doesnt use Windows

181922 2003-10-10 08:02:00 Xtra's been out for different regions this afternoon and are still having problems with Auckland dialups. Could be a number of reasons, but Xtra don't say, and I won't speculate. At the end of the day just keep trying until it connects as I'm on Xtra now and it's sweet at the moment.
0800-225598 option 2 will give you a voice representation of Xtra's Network Status and the time it was last updated.
