Forum Problem?

Curly1 · 11-10-2005, 11:02 PM

Maybe it's just me but for the last week or so I have been getting long load times and page not found when browsing the forums, refresh the page and the forum comes back works, ok for a while and it starts over.

Cookies are turned on.

Anybody else having these problems

Edward Tinker · 11-11-2005, 12:26 AM

yes, me too and I am on broad-band

tudorbug · 11-11-2005, 11:52 AM

I have had the same problem. Works fine for a time and then suddenly I cannot open the next page. I then leave and try again on another day. I am also on a broad band connection.

Yes...same problem for more than 1 week...on SBC DSL...

Figured John D. had his hands full on the trip...

Herb · 11-11-2005, 01:43 PM

Same problem here, DSL too. I often get a 'timed out' message when it won't connect.

Luke · 11-11-2005, 01:58 PM

Ditto. I am on cable Internet.

Curly1 · 11-11-2005, 06:18 PM

OK thanx for the replies I'm on cable too.

zeke1312 · 11-11-2005, 08:58 PM

Same here.............

John D. · 11-12-2005, 10:24 PM

Hey folks,

Yep - I'm aware of the issue, and I've been working on it for about 2 weeks (since I got home). As this is a shared ciruit between this Forum, the P38 forum and one whopping huge Porsche Forum I run/host/admin, the only answer has been to order an incremental circuit to again, double bandwidth. The CLEC should install it in the next week, and back here, I already have the routes and gateways set. The only change you should see is that the site is back to itself speedwise..

Thanks for the feedback, supoprt and your patience!

Curly1 · 11-12-2005, 10:31 PM

Thanx for your efforts John, much appreciated.

Curly1 · 11-15-2005, 08:15 PM

Kudos John the forum has been running super the last couple of days, much joy, thanx.

John D. · 11-15-2005, 09:07 PM

Anyway - my thanks for the feedback and encourgement!!!
