Issue with getting on Bombertalk4.com

Post by dom_105 »

Hey guys.

Sorry I posted in this (probably wrong) section, but I need some help. I am having problems getting on this site, in short, I am unable to get on this site. It times out whenever i try to bring the site up.

What I am using now to access this site is a \"Proxy Site\" (http://www.cooltunnel.com) which is bascially a browser within a browser that lets me get onto this site, which leads me to think that it is a problem with my ISP (Telstra).

It is not just this site. For some reason I have had problems getting on http://www.melbournevictory.net as well. The thing I don\'t get though is that these are the only two sites that are giving me issues, everything else is fine.

Has anybody got any ideas? This is really at the limit of my technological knowledge at the moment.

I don't think I can help, unfortunately, but I don't experience any problems.

Are you, or anybody else around here, with Telstra Bigpond. Maybe that may help me get to the bottom of the issue.

Yep, tried all that does nothing.

In addition, tried it on two other computers at home (home office setup bascially - all networked) and no luck.

Might shoot off a email to Telstra but I don\'t like my luck strangely enough.

Yep, I'm with Bigpong as well, dom_105; and I wasn't able to get on this site at all for about 36 hours from Friday afternoon to this morning. Have only just now been able to get back in.

Back on, must have been Bigpond.

Just for future reference, I have been using this site http://www.cooltunnel.com to access this site and any others that i have had a problem getting on (such as my Uni site which was a bitch right before exams).

As you can see by my posts, it's not perfect, but it's better than nothing.

Must have been a Bigpuddle problem. I've had no trouble getting on. DNS must have been up the creek.

Scary. :(

I was having problems on Sunday. Extremely slow, particularly when posting. I just gave up in the end.
