Virgin Media goes offline for thousands
- n4r9 7y agoHappened to me last night while playing a game on boardgamearena. Funnily enough the other people on the game (who weren't with virgin) also got disconnected. Added to the general confusion. I guess the website must be using virgin media as an isp as well. I was losing anyway.
- paddez 7y agoFor me, it seemed to keep going offline around :15-:20 every hour or so. I also heard that it was also affecting a larger portion of Liberty Global ISPs, and not just Virgin Media.
- g3e0 7y agoI rely on 4g for my internet and mine was totally down yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon until about midnight. SMS and calls weren't going through either. Other people in my neighbourhood also experienced issues with both Virgin Media and 4g. The article doesn't seem to say where was affected, but does say it was fixed Tuesday morning, which is not what I experienced. Local news is reporting that the outage was due to a cable being accidentally cut: https://www.shropshirestar.com/news/2020/04/28/shropshire-internet-services-down-after-cable-accidentally-cut-in-telford/ https://www.shropshirestar.com/news/2020/04/28/shropshire-in...
- paddez 7y agoThat was an unrelated localised issue. There's no details on the evening's Libertal Global issues.
