PPRuNe - Connection Time-outs

Hi all

The past couple of days I have had problems staying on proon - one moment all is fine and I am happily reading and the next I click on a thread and get a Connection Time Out ... last night, for example, I couldn't access proon from 7pm or so onwards! I reinstalled AOL adaptors etc etc then checked out other web-pages and had no such problem...it therefore seems to be a proon thing.

Is there some way I can reset the length of time my browser waits to load a page - if, for example, the proon servers are experiencing problems and so running slowly, then I am happy to wait for a page to load but, evidently, my browser (either AOL default or IE with AOL minimised) has some time-frame preset.

Thanks! :ok:

brockenspectre,

When you start getting the timeouts, try surfing a non PPRuNe site and see if it loads right away or if it times out too.

Take Care,

Richard

Been having some probs these last few nights, I am surfing proon fine when suddenly it just craws to a stop, generaly I get sick of waiting and pop to another site, generaly its ok when I return later.

I've experienced the same problem on 26th and 27th of this month, I'm on NTL broadband in the Brighton UK area. Tried Google and that loads like lightning every time so I guess that it's just the PPRuNe site that's slow for some reason. It's ok tonight though!

You don't contact PPRuNe 'directly', have to traverse the information highway y'know. Given that the server is in California (I think ?) and we are scattered everywhere else, bottlenecks can occur at any junction (router). I get the same symptoms as Herr Draper - zipping right along and then clunk, nada ! Never had a timeout though, but I probably haven't waited along enough - just go to another (gasp !) board for a while.

Same same down here. Randomly slow, occasional timeouts.
