The following ping OK
google.com
optus.com.au
twitter.com
internode.com

These don't
ggcs.net.au
telstra.com.au
abc.net.au

Interestingly when I ping www.abc.net.au I get a response but it comes 
from a1632.g.akamai.net  - Akamai being that well known transparent 
mirroring site.

Something isn't quite working tonight
