| 1110712 | 2010-06-17 01:31:00 | Panic over. Brett from some mysterious other techy dept in Vodafone had the answer, after 15 million calls and getting forwarded to the call centre all morning. They couldn't get past "Click Start.....". | pctek (84) | ||
| 1110713 | 2010-06-17 02:01:00 | What was the change? | utopian201 (6245) | ||
| 1110714 | 2010-06-17 02:59:00 | Its my modem. Works perfectly. Just coincidently decided it no longer resolves DNS anymore, I wondered as entering them in the modem didn't help, I had to enter them via WIndows. Alas I can't even RMA it, | pctek (84) | ||
| 1110715 | 2010-06-17 03:06:00 | Strange. Still having the the echoing problems on the phone line though? And I know the feeling when dealing with tech support, none of them have the answer nor do they know anyone who would. And I had one person change my connection type without telling me to try and restabilise my connection, but all it did was half my connection bandwidth, raise my ping and didn't fix the problem at all. |

Alas I can't even RMA it, I tried to put OpenDNS in my router once, it didn't work either. I doubt your router is the problem |

| 1110719 | 2010-06-17 07:06:00 | Maybe it handles the new network differently? | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1110720 | 2010-06-17 08:26:00 | I'm quick to blame vodafone/wiring because I've had my problems across 3 modems of different brands and prices, and had them configured properly in all cases yet only have them fail anywhere from once every few days to once every 20 minutes. I don't doubt that it's not my fault but I've become a little blase about the whole thing because despite it obviously not being my fault vodafone still refuses to figure out what is wrong themselves. | 8ftmetalhaed (14526) | ||
| 1110721 | 2010-06-17 20:40:00 | Maybe it handles the new network differently? But the ancient old Billion can handle it? nah, tossed the modem, bought a new one. |
