There were problems with some international routers yesterday. The PPRuNe server was running normally so the problem lay with the route the packets of information were taking through the internet. Even I gave up last night after waiting for a long time. It doesn't matter if you have a high speed connection or not if the bottleneck is somewhere between your ISP and the server. All back to normal this morning.
