Anyone in the Wellington region notice that after 9pm on Tuesday and
Wednesday night, that there have been outages with slingshots ADSL. On
Tuesday ADSL was down from 9pm and I wasn't able to connect until Wednesday
morning. Then on Wednesday at 9pm, there was a problem accessing many
websites, although the ADSL connection was still up. Just wondering if any
ADSL users in the Wellington and Hutt regions noticed these issues.
Slingshots status page didn't report any problems.

Sounds simular to, but most likely unrelated, telstraclear cable also went
down on tuesday and wednesday nights, with the wednesday night outage
lasting 3 hours - and yep no mention on the status page at all.

I had an additional 6 hour outage between 5pm - 11pm on the 17th October. I
think I may have to switch to telecom once they come out with their new
plans, then I will at least be able to find out what is happening. Slingshot
don't communicate with their clients.
