sometimes websites are accesible, sometimes they are not (and vice versa)
since about 16:00 this afternoon
belgacom helpdesk is not reachable (turned of phone after 45 mins waiting)
it is a belgacom problem, already now 4 people with the same problem

status of network page still claims everything is OK

Bosw8er · 11th September 2008, 20:54

... and it is back, after about 6 hours of very troublesome surfing

still no mention at all on the status page

piotke · 11th September 2008, 22:39

Had the same problem. Guess their DNS servers where acting up.

wutske · 12th September 2008, 06:35

yeah, Belgacom isn't as good as they want us to believe

geoffrey · 12th September 2008, 20:47
