Internet PPRuNe access
Some may recall that I asked advice regarding intermittent inability to access PPRuNe some months back.
Since then the problem has become much worse.
I find I can generally view a few pages and then 'Page unavailable' is displayed and further access impossible. After 24 hours or so, providing no attempt is made to access in the meantime access magically returns for a while.
PPRuNe techies have been very helpful but say they cannot find any reason for they problem and are at a loss as to what to suggest.
Whenever I do a trace after access is denied it always times out at hostcentric.com's servers on the West Coast of the US.
I have a fixed IP address and my knowledge of internet transmission and access is limited. I have no problems with any other site and the problem is driving me nuts!
Any suggestions gratefully received, providing I can actually get here to read them!

I had a similiar problem about 2 months back with a shortcut in my favourites which pointed at :
http://www.pprune.org/forums
however amending that to:
http://www.pprune.com/forums
appears to have fixed it and has done great since.

MM - I know a lot of effort has gone into trying to sort this out and I regret you are still having problems. I have just 'graduated' to Broadband (via AOL) and have no problems other than when server load makes pprune inaccessible. The 'HQ' are, I know, working on that.
FYI, my link is direct to the R&N URL at .org.

Waggon rut, I also had problems yesterday but I do not feel able to make any complaint against the server as I (also) have not as yet ordered a personal title to support the service.
(I will get around to it one day)
