Problem appears to have been resolved. Were we under attack by Iran?

This has been going on for months now. There was a thread last month about this happening but for short periods of time.

It seems to be working better on my laptop, but not on my phone.

Also, if you're still having issues, where are you located?

From what I've seen, the majority of the issues have been popping up in the the eastern US, specifically PA and NJ.

Louisiana... I have been busy all day today... just checked in at about 4:15 pm this afternoon... looks like it may be fixed... OOTP Forum looks normal.

Yes, I have been having this problem for several weeks or so... this is the message that would pop up when I tried to log on OOTP Forums.

Strangely, I could log on to the OOTP Graphics Forum, but no others.

But I could access the OOTP Forums once I logged on in the Graphics Forums.

Looks like all is well.

A special thanks to all of you who helped get this fixed.

Things seeme to be much better for now. I can attach files and images are loading.

For reference I am in central NJ just outside Trenton.

Forum looks back to normal for me now. Something got fixed in the past several hours since last night.

If the files download slowly for some users and not for others, there must be a problem with one of their server locations. Very likely a network/internet problem. All of their customers would see this problem and their monitoring tools would report it as well. Hence, usually it's fixed after some hours.

I checked their status page and everthing seems to be fine now. Do you still see problems? Please hit the refresh key (F5 and also Ctrl+F5) in your browser.

Andreas: thank you for the update. Yes, all appears to be better now. As you noted, the issue was likely within cdn77.org space, or in a connection between you and them. As there were some connections working, I am guessing that there was a server arrangement on their end - some sort of load balancing or local director - which failed temporarily, such that some requests through your space were routed to a down host or hosts on their end. *shrug* These things happen. It's how people like me find employment.

All fixed for me, also. Until the next time...……. It's happened before, will probably happen again.

I use Opera...I haven't used Chrome in years. Well...actually the only thing I use it for is my DirectTV Now, which is the only browser allowed for that. Opera never gives me trouble.

This is an old thread about the access problem... it was fixed about a month ago.

But it came back this week, but not as bad.

Here is the latest thread on the problem.
