Have forwarded this to the right team. Please let me know directly if you haven't seen this resolved in a few days... (I know it's probably an easy fix but I haven't sent this with flashing lights and klaxons) Cheers - N On 27 January 2016 at 10:17, Jonathan Brewer wrote:

With a followup that if Spark Business DNS is used, it does work fine:

Thanks Brad for bringing this up.

From a Spark business connection there's definitely a problem:

$ dig a atlas.ripe.net @122.56.237.1

Morning,

Could someone from Spark please ping me off list.

Your DNS servers haven't been resolving ripe.net domains for the last 3 months. Your helpdesk is telling me that RIPE has been shutdown because they cannot ping them.
