Internet routing problem to techimo.com??

Mickwish · September 20th, 2004, 01:20 AM

There have been a few members posting at other sites they cannot access techimo.com at all, and haven't been able to for almost a week now. And a few threads started here and there on this site by members able to gain access only by proxy server.

Does this only affect techimo.com, and no other site?? Or are there other sites ppl can't seem to get through to normally?

The lack of attention that seems to have been placed on this problem by the site admins (read: lack of information posted about what they are doing) is causing some long time members who have been affected to feel abandonded.

Can an official response by this site about this problem at least be posted, please? So we can post back on other sites that something is being done??

Thanks
Mick

Can you ask them to run a traceroute to see where the problem is? I'm not experiencing any access problems nor is anyone else at our company (scattered around the U.S.).

My schools connection in florida is having trouble pulling up pictures for the forum. If its like that monday I will run a trace route.

A whole heap of traceroutes have been done by various ppl in this thread at XPC already.

Thanks for the response, Scott.

Cheers
Mick

PS I see you've found that thread already...

phenious: I assume the connection is broadband?

Mickwish: I posted here, http://www.xtremepccentral.com/forum...583#post113583

It is a DS3 I think 45mbit line.... My broadband at home is working fine but the school connection is still having some issues... The pictures for report post and such do not load. Instead a text for it is added.

Most of the site loads fine for me. I cant see smiles, or buttons. thats all. And the text that replaces the buttons takes a year to come up so posting is kind of annoying

Scott, you can find a tracert from my home connection in the following thread: Trouble getting into TIMO and RR in the mid US??

It seems to fail after passing through a router operated by theplanet.com. Currently I'm at my university and it works perfectly fine. At home, I've been forced to use a proxy server to access the site.
