Over 2hrs Without Internet!
I’m so sick of my new isp TPG, i keep getting dropouts and the inability to load some sites (mostly Digg). over the past week and a half I have been looking up ways to solve the problems I’ve been having, and hearing about the problems others have been having with TPG’s “transperant” proxy. The main thing I was having problems with was digg and my torrent trackers, digg only loads once in a blue moon and my trackers are quite often unable to connect. If it wasn’t for DHT I wouldn’t be downloading torrents at all.
Today was different thought. I woke up to find that i could not connect to any websites, I could get pings from them but couldn’t connect through a web browser, timeouts was all I could get. My torrents were not connecting at all. The only thing showing any sign of life was MSN and Google talk. With no web browsing ability there was no way for me to google the problem…
I quickly decided to call up TPG and see if i could get them to give me a fix. My first call from my mobile resulted in the tech on the other end not being able to hear me. My second call, this time from a landline, resulted in the phone being picked up but no one was on the other end. i could hear other peoples calls being answered witch was funny but i was stuck in limbo. I didn’t want to wait on hold again but my current situation didn’t seem much better so I called a third time. This time I got through. The first few things the guy got me to try were no brainer shit that i had already ruled out but I played along, he wasn’t to know he dealing with a 1337 h4k3r. finally he told be to try removing ‘@tpg.com.au’ from my username on my modem. THAT FIXED IT WTF, so for a week and a half my Internet connection has worked (badly) with the @tpg but today it decides to refuse the fucking thing, not completly mind you I was still being told by my modem that my connection was UP and I could ping like i said before. Stupid tpg bullshit.
