I can't access Lot from home!!
 
Saturday, I found that I can no longer access LoT from home - I get a "Server Not Found" message. I got the same result with both Firefox and IE.

I cleared my browser cache and flushed the DNS cache.
I looked up the IP and tried that.
I get no results when I try pinging the site
I tried accessing the site from the other 2 computers on my home network.
I bypassed the router and tried connecting directly through the DSL modem.
I tried connecting via dial-up (on my laptop, not the main desktop).

None of these things worked. I still could not access LoT (or any other pages at Lunarpages), but I could access other webpages.

I called my ISP (Earthlink). They said that the problem was not on their end. The Tech I spoke with was able to pull up LoT through Earthlink’s servers just fine.

I’m completely at a loss. Any ideas?

I had the exact same problem. I thought maybe it was down for some reason. I had no problem with any other website I tried to access.

When I got into work this morning I could access with no problem and could see postings from all weekend so I thought it was just me.

Are you on Earthlink, by any chance?

Yes, through Time Warner Cable.

Same here. Couldn't get on all weekend, but could from work. And I'm on Earthlink Time Warner Cable. What's up? Was it down, or just a cable issue?

BarTopDancer 09-05-2006 11:02 AM

Worked for me - I am on Cox cable though, no Earthlink.
Sorry guys. :(

I'm suspecting an Earthlink issue. It seems the only people with problems have Earthlink accounts.

RStar 09-05-2006 11:17 AM

Yeah, I need to figure this out. I can't spend ALL my time at work on TLoT, LOL!

I always thought that was just AOL people. ;)

Nope. I have DSL.

Edited to add: I'm glad to hear that I wasn't the only one having this problem!
