im still having problems.....its taking about 4 or more tries or so to get the pages to load

crankwalk · 08-23-2005, 05:53 AM

Still problems for me.. pages won't connect/load at all from my home connection and the tracert times out right after this server:

RevitXman · 08-23-2005, 06:54 AM

I cant access pbnation from home yet I cant access it from work? Its on my Comcast ISP..

I can PM with a tracert of the path from my isp to the pbnation servers.

misseddatarget2 · 08-23-2005, 07:19 AM

works so far thanks, it was horrible last night.

UnbrakableX · 08-23-2005, 07:23 AM

still doesnt work right for me. Takes me 4 times to reload before the page loads. LOL I tried to post this message and it didnt work...heh. Second attempt to post this message failed also. Oh and the avatars don't load for me...it just says like: Misseddatarget2's Avatar or like UnbrakableX's Avatar , etc. I'm going to try and post this again. Third attempt failed too.

ugh...i just tried like 10 times to post this message. I get this error:

The operation timed out when trying to contact www.pbnation.com

oh and people's avatars don't load all the way.

misseddatarget2 · 08-23-2005, 08:06 AM

Potatoboy · 08-23-2005, 08:41 AM

About only 1 in 10 page hits actually fetches a page for me, the rest are coming back refused.

Don't traceroute to "www.pbnation.com" as you will never be able to get there.

If you are having trouble, traceroute to "www1.pbnation.com" and post your traceroute.

If you are unable to traceroute to www1 completely, try tracerouting to "mail.pbnation.com".

I am curious if the people having connection problems will be able to reach mail, but unable to reach www1 (which is what I think will happen).

**Kyle** · 08-23-2005, 08:44 AM

Potatoboy: thanks

crankwalk · 08-23-2005, 08:49 AM

My tracert looks like exactly potatoboy's, timing out right at that last server server, with of course my own provider's servers listed before that. I haven't yet tried mail.pbn but will try from home (am at work now and it works from here)

tuna · 08-23-2005, 09:09 AM

still not working. I dont know how to copy and paste the tracert results, if someone tells me I can. mail.pbnation.com works fine. www1.pbnation.com does 12 hops, and then after that starts failing.

Thanks for working on this.

umm_yeah · 08-23-2005, 10:09 AM

i have had some trouble connecting to some pages and i cant even connect at home (this is at work) it always times out the operation

misseddatarget2 · 08-23-2005, 10:18 AM

i have a screen shot of www1.pbnation.com but i lost paint and i have to paste it in powerpoint so i cant upload it.

hellbornfront · 08-23-2005, 11:26 AM

it is still extremely hard for me to use the site

it keeps saying "connection is refused to pbnation"
i use mozilla firefox

i thought it had something to do with my pc and i was on the verge of rebooting the whole thing just so i could get here; im happy its at the fault of pbnation though

please get it up asap since i love this site

I've been having problems since Friday too. I've only been able to load Pbn on IE like once in 50 tries but I'm using Opera right now and it's working but slowly. The Ghost Click thing someone posted in the other thread is working perfectly for me but I don't know anything about how it does.

Potatoboy · 08-23-2005, 01:02 PM

I'm connected now through a cgiproxy (www.censorshipmakesmepuke.com) and it seems to be working well.
