AlanHo Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I just sent you an Email to confirm that I have not had any problems all day. However, I was AWOL from 6 to 10 this evening so cannot vouch for that period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dencandy Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Anything to do with the broken connections under the Med (BBC)? Seems a bit strange, but where is the Forum server based? From here (Sri Lanka) connections are currently very slow, but have only been unobtainable a couple of times since last Friday.Also, remember the problems many of us had with the Christmas skin last year?

AlanHo Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 I have not had a problem this morning - all is fine and the forum is as quick as normal. Strange you are having problems doug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug Posted December 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Yeah seem to get this problem quite often. I usually go and browse the BBC site or summat else the check in again. Had thought it was my TT link, but having been given a new router (for free!) my synch has gone up from the 1-2 MB to a rock steady 5+ MB I'm thinking the problem must lie elsewhere. It's annoying would like to solve this problem 'cause the Forum is "My Favourite - don't tell the others" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catgate Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 I have found out what the problem is. It is the Christmas Hunts that are having their hunts before Christmas to outwit the Animal Rights loonies, and every so often they chase Firefox till it find a bolt hole.

Hb_Kai Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Do you by chance use the DREADED FF or the marvellous IE? :DMarvellous even after the massive coverage of its security vulnerabilty? :PI couldn't get on a little while ago, did anyone get this? I was thinking it was my internet because I'm doing a lot of other things at the minute to prevent access to some sites, but I tried other websites and it was OK. Apart from the one that I've just learnt is down for maintenance. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
