Guild Wars down?

[AthenaOfDelphi]

Hi all,

This is a little off topic, but does anyone else play Guild Wars? If so, can you connect at the moment? I've been trying to get on-line since around this time yesterday (don't play very often so I have no clue when the problem started).

I can't resolve any of the NCSoft Guild Wars sites (arena.net, ncsoft.com, guildwars.com).

Any ideas whats going on?

Panic over *phew*

Guild Wars isn't down... I just have an ISP that sucks. DNS chain went like this:- Laptop->Gateway->Router->ISPs DNS Servers. Tiscali's (now TalkTalk or Opal) servers appear to be out of sync.

Change my DNS chain to this:- Laptop->Gateway->Google's public DNS servers and hey presto, it works :D
