Youtube blocked in Nottingham?

So youtube doesn't work at all now, every other website does, and it works on other people's laptops. Have I broken some kind of bandwidth allowance limit?

Contact the Information Services Student IT or SNS Helpline - http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/is/help/index.aspx.

They will be able to say whether it is a temporary problem, your connection or a system-wide decision.

try going to m.google.com/youtube its the mobile version, i know when ebay doesnt work for me sometimes the mobile version does, also you have probably not exceeded any data allowance limits or you would not be able to post on this site, maybe some of google's servers are overloaded at the moment, causing you a temporary restriction from access

Freewire and Youtube seem to be having issues for some people, not others. IT have no idea what is causing it, but probably need people having problems to help them find out. Not complaining as such, which is unproductive, but actually offering to do diags and stuff.

I have intermittent problems with Youtube here in Broadgate Park, twice in the last week but only for a few hours at a time... internet lately has been very slow, and some sites won't load (persistent 502 errors) without entering 'www.' at the start of the URL - 'http://' alone just doesn't cut it apparently...
