AFF was up but some users on BigPond DSL services reported that there was a DNS issue - presumably in the Telstra DNS servers.

For future reference when this happens the site can still be accessed by using http://66.226.77.74

Cheers
Russ

I tried at work today and at one stage it was down for me. We use Macquarie for our connections at work.
I went to http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com and it said it was up, and lo and behold, I could access it again after that.

5a.m will always be an issue as the backup is still running at that time although it finishes around 5.20 or so.
