It’s just started working again on my test connection. (Spooky)

Can anyone else who was seeing the issue let me know if resolved?

Is this happening because they are testing to see how they can "reduce" torrent traffic?

I’ve had more information come in from customers.

It looks like all UDP is being blocked at this stage. VOIP Circuits across a Telstra connection connect but theres no UDP Payload data coming through.

Might be isolated to an exchange.

That dns server is working fine from Telstra fttp in South Brisbane.
I am also not seeing DNS issues here.
Though we only use the telstra dns servers as forwarders.

3G and Dongles are working fine.

We’ve had at least 20 customer calls about it, plus I’ve confirmed with an inner-city BNE Business-Grade  ADSL Connection.

Whirlpool is having a whine too:

DNS Server that wont work from an ADSL Connection is 139.130.4.4 (That’s the Telstra supplied one) But I can’t get any manual UDP Queries out that link to any other nameserver either.

They just don’t show up at the other end in a TCPDUMP.

Hi is anyone else experiencing Telstra DNS issues in Brisbane?

It appears as though someone at Telstra has blocked all UDP-Port53 requests from any Telstra connection in Brisbane.

Not only can’t I resolve using Telstra’s Brisbane DNS, I can’t resolve any other nameservers when using a Telstra ADSL Connection here in Sunny Brisvegas.

This issue appears to be Widespread.

If someone from Telstra is Lurking, please unblock UDP port 53 as it’s kind of essential for Internets to work.

Sean.
