As one of the UK's largest ISP's, this could be affecting your site if you have customers on NTL's network.

NTL's DNS servers are playing up big style - first noticed Thursday morning.

They are basically returning the wrong IP for any given host for a period of a few hours; after which it reverts back to the correct IP. It is not zone specific; so whilst www.yourdomain.com might resolve correctly; ftp.yourdomain.com could be completely wrong.

This is also affecting customers web browsing as NTL's transparent proxy network relies on their own DNS.

This is bad , I hear its affecting people who connect through tiscali too.

I dont know if its a coincidence but might be due to the removal of the old diamond cables?
