Cortana on my phone has been playing up. I’m sorry but we cannot connect to the network and that could be why.

If you do have problems on a PC use the Google DNS provider to fix:

I have a similar problem with Team Viewer and TalkTalk DNS. Well not me personally even though I’m on TT.

From what I can see a number of ISPs are having troubles as they piggy-backed either on BT or directly to Google. (Google have fixed their issue).

I’d guess if you used OpenDNS you saw no problems.

I think you can use the Softpedia fix for OpenDNS with the following settings: (please correct if I made an error)

ipv4

208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220

ipv6

2620:119:35::35 and 2620:119:53::53
