    Default Virgin Media Have A Big Network Issue

    lol you may have noticed but at around 21:30 everyone who has Cable Broadband with Virgin Meida got disconnected.

    I wonder why, iv been told because the DHCP servers are overloaded but im sure there will be a news story about this tomorrow with more information.

    Good Old Virgin

    UPDATE: ok the reason everyone got disconnected was because all the modems tried to do an update but the update failed due to a Incompatible SW file

    Awesome! I wondered wtf was going on.

    And what a clever time for an update, right when a huge number of people are using it, not say, sometime in the early morning when usage is lightest, ohono...
