I have two Gmail accounts and have been unable to access either of them since last night.

It just says 'connecting' and nothing happens. I am using a fast cabled connection and have no problem with anything else. Does anyone else have a problem with Gmail?

Worth keeping an eye on this (http://support.google.com/mail/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=known_issues.cs) page.

But I would say more than likely you just need to check your DNS resolution, or your ISP is experiencing routing issues.

Thanks for that ........

I can access the page you mentioned, but not the links on it. They also just 'hang'.

Inbox won't load. Directed to our 'basic HTML' view If you get stuck on 'Loading...,' we suggest first trying our troubleshooting steps (https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=8767). You should be able to use the 'older version (https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=1&ov=1)' of Gmail or the basic HTML view (https://mail.google.com/mail/h/) while we work to resolve the issue.

I am sure that would be helpful if I knew how to do so! I'm in a hotel so not sure I can do much about it but I did try to access using a dongle and got the same error response.

Sometimes Explorer is picky. Chrome ok always (but I do not like the 'new' version gmail forced on me, finally).
Both ok this morning.

Using Firefox 15.0.1... and latest Flash. Using Gmail....for the last 24 hrs or so have been having trouble attaching files to outgoing emails.
Seems very picky about what it will and won't accept. Keep getting 'Attachment Failed' error but no reason given for the failure.

I've had no problems attaching files and sending emails today.
