I noticed this morning that the forum was unavailable for me. It seems that I can still access it via my mobile and the problem appears to be BTs DNS not resolving the forum ip address.
I was just wondering if anyone else is having an issue with BT as everything else is just fine.

Strange. I can't access it via my local connection, but if I use VPN then I'm good. Everything else is fine.arkadiusz.makarenko wrote: 15 Feb 2025 12:48I couldn't connect at all.

I couldn't access it from my mobile earlier today but seems ok now.
I was having problems posting via my desktop with VPN enabled on Thursday but that might be unrelated

To be fair to BT they are usually very reliable, but glad to hear it wasn't just me!mrbombermillzy wrote: 15 Feb 2025 13:38 Same problem here Jon...and Im with BT too. Only just back on now.
Also back on myself now too.

Yeah, it's been specially today so I suspect your Thursday issue was something else.JezC wrote: 15 Feb 2025 13:21 I couldn't access it from my mobile earlier today but seems ok now.
