It seems like Rogers customers are having internet access problems as in DNS Problems where some sites work, some don't. I tried using OpenDNS but no success either.

Anybody else or any Bell customers having problems?

i'm on rogers and i have no problem. have you tried their "alternate" dns servers which done serve you up a rogers page when you enter an incorrect address:

altdns.rnc.net.cable.rogers.com
64.71.255.202

I am on rogers, everything works for me.

Try 206.191.0.210 instead of opendns

cleanme

Hmmmm, I tried both suggestions and they work, but for the sites that already worked. Hmmm.

I'm in North Brampton if that helps.

Yeah, my rogers service has been slow today too and I'm in south Etobicoke.

Erm, what kind of sites are blocked, exactly?

This may help or not!

Do you have Windows XP Service Pack 3 installed? If you are going through a router you may not have problems but if the PC/laptop is connected directly to the cable modem you may have problems with Win XP SP3 affecting DNS resolution. I tried to deliver a new PC with SP3 to my parents on the weekend and ran into that problem, after uninstalling SP3 as per the Rogers Support Tech the internet connection was restored. He mentioned that there was a white paper on SP3 and DNS but I haven't checked.

Good luck

I'm in London, Rogers is slow, can't access some pages. The high velocity of money the last couple of days is probably throttling the net :-)

cleanme

Nope, I'm on OS X 10.5.5 and I tried on a Linux box and a XP ServicePack 2 box. Why can't these problems happen when I'm sleeping, grrrrr!


Bill, surprisingly enough one site which is affected is my day trading portal!

Turbodan

yes slow rogers internet.
It stopped working yesterday until I rebotted my modem and router

cleanme

Apparently it is a routing issue through North Eastern US of A...?

cleanme

Things are good again!

webbie

That explained it.

No issues with me ... Rogers Cable Guy ...

Today the Canadian Do Not Call list went on line. It crashed the Fed's servers due to the traffic volume. That and the day traders have clogged the Net.

Now, if you are still having problems today it could be an issue with the service to your home. There could be a problem with the drop outside. This is more noticable when it is raining (as today) or has been damp for a while. Contact tech suport and have them check your modem connectivity.

On Rogers High Speed. Routing issues started around 130pm for me. Finally started working around 445pm. Couldn't browse or ping some sites.
