49065 2002-05-15 23:23:00 All Xtra customers,

Can you guys access the following websites?
1. http://straitstimes.asia1.com.sg/
2.
http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/
3. www.asia1.com.sg

I am a Xtra Jetstream customer (unfortunately) and am unbale to access the above URLs. However, I'm able to access all those URLs with other ISPs from other computers.

I've contacted Xtra's helpdesk about a week ago and unfortunately, they are unable to fix the problem. They can't even load those websites from their helpdesk machines! What a joke!

Maybe it's time for me to change to another ISP

Cheers

I can access the page fine, on Clear, but my friend on Xtra dial-up can't access it. Says 'Page cannot be displayed'.

No idea why :)

Mike.

49068 2002-05-16 03:06:00 Not a go for the 10 with paradise-cable either!
I suggest that we each try this, from our various ISP's at differant times, post, and compare the results. Rating ISP's with this test, based on one try, might condemn an ISP simply because the server(s) all this is coming from is up and down like a yoyo

49070 2002-05-16 04:56:00 Do a trace route on those addresses and give the info to the Xtra helpdesk. Ask for a ticket ID and ring back to find the status of the Job. If you were a Jetstart customer I'd suggest you have been assigned one of the 255 IP addresses... Guest (0)

Ouch! LOL

I almost got in to No. 1 (connection too slow at the moment), got No. 2 and No. 3 which I couldn't read, being in an Asian language.
