We have detected a drop in a lot of broadband sessions from one of our upstream wholesale suppliers. We have raised this as a case and will update you as soon as possible. Both of our interconnects are only allowing a small number of live sessions so we believe this issue is on their network.
If you session has sync but will not connect this is probably the issue – we will update this case witin 30 minutes if not before
We apologise for the issue at this time
[update 8:30]
We are now seeing sessions return – we do not have an update from the supplier as yet and are following up for a formal update. As soon as we have some news we will update further

One of our core switches in Harbour Exchange Square had a routing issue about 14:20 today – after our team checked the switch it was decided the fastest resolution was to perform a routing engine switchover. We would normally plan this out of hours – However as this was causing issues to customers the decision was taken to perform this immediately.
This affected all services directly connected or routed through this switch
The switch reboot has now completed and service should be restored to all locations and services.
If there is still an ongoing issue for any services please report them to support in the normal way
We apologise for the issues this may have caused
Mar 28, 2019 | Information, Outages, Planned Work
As part of our commitment to service improvement, we would like to inform you that we will be performing planned critical maintenance as part of capacity upgrades on our core network
Maintenance window start: Wednesday 10th April 2019 23:00 GMT
Maintenance window end: Thursday 11th April 2019 06:00 GMT
Expected impact duration: The work will impact some of our DSL subscriber customers, and they will see an intermittent service within the maintenance, with a short period of down time. Service should be restored automatically but it may require a router re-boot. If after this action, service hasn’t been restored, please raise a support case in the normal manner.
Feb 15, 2019 | Information, Outages, Planned Work
We will be upgrading some of our core routers that terminate broadband sessions during the course of the weekend – each will be down for less than 30 seconds for an important firmware upgrade. These will be staggered over the two days. Most affected customers will reconnect within seconds automatically. If you have any issues, please reboot your router and if that fails for any reason, please call into or email support in the normal way.
This will only affect ADSL, FTTC & FTTP lines.
