Problems with site

[Isochroma]

Since several days ago, I've been having problems with doom9.org and forum.doom9.org. Both sites take about 5 minutes to load on both my home DSL and remote 5mbit cable internet. Quite often the loading simply stalls.

It is likely there is a misprogrammed router along the way, and that it affects all of BC (I live on Vancouver Island). This problem just cropped up several days ago, so you should talk to your ISP and get them to do a diagnostic from here.

Pings are mostly failing to deliver any response. Tracert pauses for a long time on some of the last hops, from both my cable connection (local IP 24.108.193.149):

and my ADSL line [209.153.193.54] - both at different physical locations about 8 miles apart in Victoria, BC, Canada. Different ISPs, too:

The problem, of course, is the routers at ovh.net, which is also your ISP. The're having sever problems with connections from western Canada, as evidenced by the consistently long delays on those hops, and the continual timeouts in my browsers.

I doubt its a regional problem, as I'm having the same problems. (Holland)

[Doom9]

there are no problems going the reverse way (pinging your IPs from the forum server)

[Koepi]

Works fine from here, too.

Two different backbones tested:
German Telekom
Tiscali Germany

Works #1 for me too (Canada).

[stephanV]

It seems for me the problem has resolved itself somewhere between this morning and afternoon.

[Isochroma]

Yes, the problem has also resolved itself for me too! Thanks for the prompt replies and hope y'all continue to find this great site useful & fun!
