hehe I love the way the twofo.co.uk still seems accessible even when all these problems seem to exist.. definelty very ironic that out of all the sites that load best its twofo.co.uk.. unless ITS gave it special permission :P or maybe its simply being cached as so many on-campus users are viewing it :lol:

Ironic that the interweb is still shit even though there isn't any DNS... clearly not DC that is causing the problems... 26 users here atm and most of them are off campus... Need I say any more?

u wanna bet DC (or P2P) will still be blamed.. the ITS engineers kno its not true, but the administrative non-technical ITS leadership will probably still try :x

I think it would be worth posting something on the twofo website explaining to people how to put in a DNS manually and the IPs of other DNS servers on-campus. Just in case this happens again...

If someone does make a n00b's guide to the resnet, I'd be more than happy to put it on the main website. PM me if you do this please :-)

I have made a new Topic specifically for the Noobs guide.. I thought it would be good way to compile the info.. That way when someone finishes a section they simply post it.. that way everyone can help edit it
