@LimestoneDSB The issue is with Cogeco's DNS servers. If you change the DNS servers on your router to google's DNS it fixes the issues. 8.8.8.8 8.8.8.4

@MohawkCollege are you aware of the large Cogeco outage. Some people might miss orientation. Any chance they are recorded for playback later?

@Todd0575 @cogeco Service outages happen everywhere with everyone. Judging by the wide scale outage and the website and phones not working it sounds like something outside of cogeco’s control. Google is having some problems too. It’s better to research and understand not ***** all the time.

For those with #Cogeco, if you're experiencing connection problems, you can hardcode 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.8.4 as your DNS servers until Cogeco fixes the issue on their end. Please dm or @me if you want to know how to do this

@Tierney4351 @cogeco I love that they have like, three or four people staffing their help lines for, what, a million or so customers? Maybe more?

@cogecohelps received an email from the Halton School Board that Cogeco service is down. No information shared generally from Cogeco. Very frustrating.

@Tierney4351 @cogeco SUPER awesome that their customer support apparatus is completely and utterly unable to help anyone, or even to inform their customers that there are issues. Great show, awesome job, @cogeco!

I’m not sure what’s worse: Intermittent service or no service at all? My internet is trying to work, but I can’t accomplish much of anything. Plus, even my bell data seems laggy now. #Cogeco

@GlobalNational So COGECO sends out a notice on the internet to tell me that my internet is down and that they are working on it. Is it me or does this not make sense ?

@cogeco Looks like cogeco's DNS is down. For a temporary fix, change your DNS address in your network settings to 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 (Google's DNS)
