Afternoon Guys,

 

Anyone on the SWGfL able to try to "ping" or "nslookup" www. heles.plymouth.sch.uk (readd the www. please) and tell me what it gets back?

 

Got a visitor in today and any attempts to access their wireless via DNS lookups are failing and returning a 10.2.200.11 address (which is then caught on our local bypass), but when I try it from my phone it's showing up as 217.179.68.17

 

Not sure if it's us or the Grids DNS gone spassy again.

 

Non-authoritative answer:

Name: www. heles.plymouth.sch.uk

Address: 10.2.200.11

 

 

Many thanks,

Steve

I can browse the website with no problem.

 

On our computers we can too, but any mobile device on wireless it's obviously trying to do a DNS lookup via our controller/firewall etc and breaking at that point :s

 

Even our Smoothie can't ping it as it's trying to ping the local address
