Title: ISP Problems
Post by Highlander on Nov 16^th, 2006, 12:46pm

Over the past few weeks i have been unable to connect to this site. Page not found error, cant ping it or see any type of connection at all.

It happens for a few days at a time then its fine again.
People on the same ISP as me have the same problem at the same times.
Different ISP users have no problems.

ISP (Nildram) say its nothing from their end causing the problem.

Is this server banning my ISP?
Any ideas anyone??

Tried rebooting your computer? It isn't a software thing is it?

Have some trouble sometimes on some sites, can't find server etc, if I reboot it all works fine. Not normally any problems with this site though ;)

Regards, Bruce.

Hi Bruce, no its not a pc problem, other people with the same ISP as me have the same problem, at the same time, when i can connect they can connect, when i cant they cant, they arent on the same exchange as me either.

Just wondered if anyone slse had a problem, ISP say sometime servers on some ISP's ban other ISP's

No Its not banning the ISP its that they are not updating their DNS list and as ours changes and they have not updated theirs you will find the page not found .....or something like that .. Its far too technical for ME .

Try re-loggong on to your ISP and get another IP address, that usually cures the problem.

If however you are on a static IP then you need to contact your ISP
