There's a hardware fault at IDNet, David, which is affecting access to the company website, email and, of course, the forum. It also seems to be slowing DNS for some other sites. IDNet are on site as I type...

Simon's posted on TB (http://bbs.adslguide.org.uk/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=idnet&Number=3310670&page=0&view=expanded&sb=5&o=31). It's a switch failure at TeleCity, replacement is on the way.
