Im talking about pinging PressF1 and having it take 700ms with 1 out of every 2 timing out!

Why would it be doing this?
We're able to download at up to 7MBPS (When we had 4PC's all going hard with a 50Meg Download using DAP), but I cant even get a single connection now to Orcon?

I could earlier though, that's what worries me?!

I found their ftp server tries to connect to port 113 (auth) when you connect to it. Perhaps an overactive firewall is blocking it because your not running auth.

155243 2003-06-26 03:35:00 It is rather intermittent though...
And the PC's have been able to connect before?

Its not just the one PC that gets slowed down, but the connection on all of them!
Pinging PressF1 normally takes 40-50ms, but when its doing the connection, it takes 700ms if it actually makes it to it!

155244 2003-06-26 03:52:00 I am on JetStart & I upload that test file for you early on & I had no problems, so it is not orcon, which is having the problem, so it must be your end :( stu140103 (137)
