Jul 15, 2011 at 17:04 | comment | added | Random832 | I would say it would mean "this was formerly/normally reliable, but has entered a state where it works only intermittently" | |
Jul 15, 2011 at 14:26 | comment | added | Mitch | Both these seem to me to mean 'not working at all' rather than 'working sometimes, but sometimes not' | |
