Oh my gosh.. You're an idiot.

You stated you had been 'disconnected', I ran along on the assumption that
you had been disconnected.. Clearly you had not..

Please tell me you don't work in the technical industry!!!

I suspect the problem is with dynamic routing between xtra and ipnet then,
ive noticed problems here in the past, not just with xtra.

Cheers

Wow that's amazing! So when I traceroute out of my boxes and it gets
to the XTRA machines on the other side but stops there, or (last
week) I can send data to machines as long as I know their IP address
(their DNS failed for an hour or two) it's just cos my router is "re-
negotiating"?
