Can you get to websites (ie. www.bbc.co.uk) ok? or is your entire
connection down. There are no mail problems at this end, and there's
nothing in my overnight log report, so everything should be working
normally.

I'll have a more detailed look at the logs when I SSH into the server, but
in the meantime, all should be functioning normally at Orpheus towers.

Mine failed with the same error message at the same time.
O.K. now though.

084512131621 has failed to make connection for me at least 10 times
over the past few days - not a line problem, as this has happened
using 3 different lines.

What error do you get? Does the modem connect? do you get a BT voice (as
somone else reported). Also, what software are you using?

I get the BT voice. Still using Voyager, believe it or not . . .

Time to go broadband? I never regretted it!

With best wishes,

What part of the country are you in? I think there's congestion on the BT
network. This is odd because I've not received any BT service reports which
they generally send out prior to any 'end user' affecting engineering works
going on.

Both London and where I am at the moment, Somerset. It's getting
worse - about one connection in ten getting through now, plus
authentication failing after 5 seconds

(I will be going broadband, but not just yet . . .)

I have been away all day Sunday so I did not contribute further. As
the person who kicked off this thread I should add the comment the
problem was on Broadband, and was limited to email connections to
Orpheus. All other ISPs I fetch from, and all other Broadband
activities were operating normally.
