Is anyone having trouble with the Internet? |
|
I have tried to log-on to a bunch of websites (including Democratic Underground) and it says 'Cannot Open Page'. I know DU is having server trouble - but I don't know why I'm having trouble with other sites.

Well, could be a new virus, hackivism, or Bush's atempt at destroying the Internet so we all have to watch Fox News.

I saw an Aurora alert an hour or so ago, my cell phone has been experiencing recent problems as well. I wonder if there is any connection.

I had trouble with all sites for a few hours yesterday, and I've had trouble with DU only all day until now (4pm PDT). What's the problem? Tin foil hat theory: It's Rumsfeld/Rove/Cheney's practice drill for controlling the internets...

11. Sometimes if you hit a wall or bugaboo in one site - it messes up your |
|
browser or program. Try turning computer of for 10 seconds. And then back on. Should all be free and clear.

If you're using a ms os try:
ping -t www.yourisp.com
See if you get any dropped packets. If so it might be that your connection is bad. Unplug the power from your modem and router, wait 5 minutes and plug them back in.
If not try a tracert www.google.com and see if any hop is particularly bad.
"The Internet" as a whole rarely has problems. It's been a few years since a worm went out and nailed everything with ARP requests. Things are a little tighter now. Problems with a big carrier's backbones still happen occasionally.
