Can't Ping or Tracert to TPG.COM.AU

There has been a network change probably in the last week that stops ping and tracert to tpg.com.au.

Ping times out and tracert gets lost. 

These commands are useful for testing connection and response times.

TPG DNS and Google DNS both show these addresses for tpg.com.au:

3.104.10.251   and   3.24.17.82.

Ping to each one times out.

Ping 203.26.27.38 still works and shows it as tpg.com.au.

Thanks for the update @BasilDV . This is taking a long time to fix a simple problem.

The mail server mail.tpg.com.au (27.32.32.11) is in the same boat; can't ping or tracert.

Its like ICMP traffic is being blocked or mis-directed to a dead-end.

Tpg.com.au is still accessible via browser, and mail server is still accessible from my mail client.

Hi @david64 

 

We were informed that the problem had been fixed.

 

Are you still having problems pinging or tracing tpg.com.au?
