Thanks, Mitch, BT strike again. Stepney Green is likely to affect large numbers.

Thought so as that was the BRAS that failed during the day a few weeks back wasn't it?

It was indeed. It seems the whole country routes through it (which suggests BT have never looked at how the internet works when planning their own network). :sigh:

Appears not but I bet they can reroute traffic easily when it affects their own broadband customers.

Someone has probably had it away with their bag of spanners.
