Can't access dpreview

[crusher]

I haven't been able to access dpreview website for a few days, is it down? Is anybody also facing the same problem?

 

[theRBK]

have no probs accessing the site these few days...maybe higher traffic due to 1DIII discussions...and all the pre PMA updates...today, new Sony cameras...

 

[nikonrus]

I had some issues trying to access this site at certain times of the night as well, but that's all pretty normal; all servers sometimes have slight downtime - very common.

 

[ipin]

It's 9am now and no problems surfing the website.

 

[skopio]

erm.. i havent been able to access since 3 days ago. sigh..

 

[armadillo]

I can access everyday so far no problem.
Are you using Singnet or Starhub, maybe DNS setting problem? :think:

 

[ExplorerZ]

no problem for me too... not laggy as well. singnet here

 

[skopio]

i could access everything until 3 days ago, after the new canon was announced.
after that, the page cant load ord. tried both laptop and desktop, IE, FF and Opera, at different times of the day.
all cannot. strange?

 

[armadillo]

which provider u subscribe?
unless some viruses somehow change your DNS setting.
are u able to access hotmail.com or yahoo.com?
you can check your DNS setting from command prompt: IPCONFIG /all

I have no problems accessing the site. Just tried with Singnet and last night used Starhub also worked. :think:

Do you have problems with other sites like dcresource, imaging-resource, or just dpreview?

 

[longkangman]

no problem so far and errors msg you get ?

 

[skopio]

only dpreview.com and all subsets. ie. forums, etc.
every other site works. photozone, slrgear, dpchallenge, dcresource, etc.

it's really strange how only 1 site doesnt work. and only 3 days ago when before that it was perfectly fine.


FF error message:

[drakon09]

Which explains why I cannot access dpreview on my home PC...

Need help in the killing? :devil:

 

[raptor84]

I'm on SH and have issues as well...

 

[Cheesecake]

I'm on SH and have issues as well...

me too.

upset.:dunno:

 

[skopio]

better be rectified soon. or starhub gona get scolded.
why starhub? cause i can't scold dpreview.

 

[Adelfin]

me too.

upset.:dunno:

me 3.....
zzzz

and i thought it was my firewall or something... seems like all the SH peeps got the prob....

 

[skopio]

could be possible that some of starhub's IPs got banned? since groups of starhub users share a particular IP.
