    Default Help Please.

    I have a problem connecting to another forum that I visit regularly & have done for several months.

    After making a post this morning it is now unavailable or connection reset according to browser messages.
    Tried 3 browsers, 2 computers & cache cleared.



    Yet webdownnow.com says it's up & therefore only out for me??



    Com prom: tracert gives result of unable to resolve.

    Could someone try this forum & see if you can get there, please.

    EDIT; here is the address so you can copy paste,

    No!! Laptop & PC same result & just tried the smart phone thru the WiFi & get same result; "Webpage not available."
    Thanks for the suggestion; so I'm back to my IP or my ISP being blocked.
    I didn't say anything wrong, honest.

    Unfortunately I can't try the phone on the Telstra network as I have no reception here.

    Back to plan B, more beer.
    I'll check tomorrow & see what happens.
    That may be delayed as I'll be watching the MotoGp tomorrow.

    Thanks Rick & OB, reset modem, PC & Laptop & still same result; so it's got to be my ISP's server routing or my IP addresss is being blocked by the forum??

    Fark it I'll just have another beer & it will probably resolve itself tomorrow.

    Thanks for the help,
    Cheers, Tiny

    What DNS are you running? Try changing it to googles.

    OK got tracert working typed address wrong yesterday, I was adding the www it doesn't like that.lol

    As you can see tracert to Austech.info is fine & apriliaforum.com times out somewhere in a DNS server.

    So irwazza suggests change my DNS to Googles. How do I do that, please?

    Thanks irwazza, OB & Rick, the DNS change to Googles has sorted the issue.
    I changed the setting on the PC & bypassed the router to get it to work, so I guess I have to change the router DNS as well.

    That link was gold oceanboy,

    Most of my machines sit on the Google DNS Tiny, it is especially helpful when using a 3G connection as i do.
    Pages generally load faster too, which is why i first started to use it.
    If u want to go on an expedition get a Land Rover, if u want to come home from an expedition get a Landcruiser!

    No worries Tiny. I would change your router to run off Google DNS. Seems like your ISP DNS isn't up to the task :thumbup:

    You wouldn't believe it.

    Changed the router DNS setting to Googles, changed laptop as well to make sure.

    Doesn't work, original problem still there.

    Bypass router straight to modem, no problem.
    Unfortunately that is not a viable solution for networking in my house.
    & sub addresses are the only web address I can't access via the router.

    Googled 'Configure DNS Google Linksys WRT 1900 AC' & get a whole heap of threads about the router ignoring the DNS settings & no simple resolution that I can see.

    Got me stuffed why the problem occurred in the first place??
    Cheers, Tiny

    Well the problem gets weirder, I could access the forum via the Google DNS bypassing the router with my laptop, then when I posted in a thread with no problems I went to the thread I was posting in when the issue started, could read it ok, however when I went to post it allowed me to input to the page, then when I selected post reply, it said stay or leave, then I said leave as we all no if you stay it will double post.
    Go back to thread original problem started, no access page reset.
    So I connected the PC direct to modem, found page & it said 'restore auto saved contents' at the bottom of the quick post window, restored contents & added missing bit.
    Thought I'd go advanced as a different option to what I'd already tried, got 404 error access prohibited.
    Tried other aprilia forum addresses & back where I started. pages wont load just times out.

    So now can't access the aprilia forum, via any means unless I find another DNS server to use, when I do I wont visit that thread again, fark me dead what a nightmare.

    Going to watch MotoGp as I've had enough of trying to sort this out for now.
    Cheers, Tiny

    Its ok Tiny, you just have to move address, then you can get onto the Aprillia forum mate
    Or
    You can stay there and post via proxy from one of us

    In all seriousness, can you load a different firmware on your router?

    I see your Router is compatible with OpenWRT

    Ok so while watching the rather boring Mooto3 race I thought of the answer.
    As it was a DNS server error that reoccurs, I remembered about flushdns.
    So I ran Command prompt as Admin; ipconfig /flushdns.
    problem solved.

    Thanks for everyone’s help.
