BT internet outage was our fault, says Equinix

markgobell

ISP outages continued this morning

My ISP is PlusNet part of BT

The first outage occurred Tuesday evening - intermittent.

This continued through to Wednesday early PM

Today Thursday AM certain websites were still unavailable.

PlusNet has a service status page indicating the fault and in online support chat today, which I couldn't access yesterday was with a power supply at the Equinix centre in London.

This morning they claimed the same fault has returned !

I could not even access emails from a local host !

Surely this was a DNS issue - some sites available and others not ?

Very frustrating.
