Failed router at Telehouse

Free webcast: Service level monitoring and management

Blueyonder, the broadband service provided by NTL Telewest, suffered a country-wide failure this afternoon between 14.30 and 16.00. Customer were unable to connect, and both blueyonder.co.uk and telewest.co.uk web sites ceased to exist for a little over an hour.

A failed core router at Telehouse was, apparently, to blame and is all fixed up: so everything should be back to normal now.®
