accyweb page loading probs
 

Is anyone else having probs with page loading on accyweb tonight or is it only me?
Its taking so long to load a page on here its taken 15 mins to put this post on.
Facebook and other sites seem ok. :confused:

I can't see any problems from this end. It could be your DNS settings, they will probably resolve themselves by morning. However you can opt to change your settings from your internet providers to an alternative.

OpenDNS is what I use, it's free and I find it to be faster than my internet providers. It also informs you if you visit dodgy phishing sites. Have a look at OpenDNS > Home Network > Solutions

Thanks andrew, Ive just run a chkdisk scan and rebooted and it seems to be ok now so it must be my side.

being a computer numpty, does open dns affect yer anti virus n spybot n things? mine was very slow earlier also.

Re: accyweb page loading probs
 

well I just got a full page up a min ago saying WARNING This page holds no data...try again. so I did and here I am.
Think maybe the old accyweb gremlins have returned from tyhe days of old.

I dont know about the DNS cashy . am a bit to wary about trying anything like that without chairside assistance, but thanks anyway andrew.

No it doesn't. Each website has an IP for example google.com is 72.14.205.100. What happens is when you type a web address, the DNS (domain name server) looks up what the IP of google.com is, so that your computer can find it.

Your own providers DNS are often quite slow (mine is), and sometimes have problems where you can't access certain sites although they're not actually down. Therefore I choose to use OpenDNS as I find it performs better. It should have no affect on applications etc.

I hope this is clear as mud. :D

Let me know if the problems happen again, it could well be Accringtonweb.

I too had a few slow loading pages earlier, some had to be refreshed as they had not loaded.

Although I think that you must have put another 50p in the meter as it seems OK now :D

Are you sure about that ;)


Here we go again

Re: accyweb page loading probs
 

I got fed up with waiting for page loading and went to bed earlier than usual

Re: accyweb page loading probs
 

Haha Neil, don't start! :p

By the number of people it probably isn't a DNS issue, if anyone experiences this again could you remember what time it happened and post here please? As exact a time as possible would be most helpful. :)

About 15 minutes before 23.36 if you look at the first post in this thread.

I had a lurk around 11 p.m. and was very painful then Andrew. Like Margaret gave up.

Seems to be about the same time as this thread reported by K.S.H., although, of course, no idea whether anything to do with it.. :confused:
