Rubenerd: Twitter won’t load on #TPG in the evenings

Remember a fortnight ago when I couldn’t access Twitter through our TPG home internet connection?

Unfortunately it’s become a persistent problem. Each night around 19:00, Twitter suddenly stops responding. I can still ping and perform traceroutes, but neither my sister or I can use Twitter using our TPG connection on our phones or computers.

This evening, I was reassured (for want of a better word) to see people commenting about the issue on Whirlpool. Clearly this is affecting a large number of their customers, not just a few people in Hornsby.

Here’s hoping they get on top of this quickly. Hey, crazier things have happened.
