hi

yesterday i could not log onto the rmc site, error host down kept popping up!! but if i tried another site it was ok, rmc was the only one that i couldnt log onto, this happened a while back and was fine the next day, the same happened this time.. just wondered if there was an outage yesterday or is it just me who has this problem..

cheers

At the moment Dan, a major upgrade to the UK Backbone is being carried out to enable the support of the incoming national Broadband access that both NTL and BT are/have launched. This is going to affect a few ISP's and servers for a couple of days or so.

This info has come from a Major ISP that I have no connecton with at all. Tuesday night was a nightmare for a lot of people, including myself to get to a few sites.

I had the same problem, but it onle affected the RMC site, I tried 5 different ISP's and no good.... maybe bad luck I suppose. All the other sites were fine though.

I think Bill is either hybernating of fishing somewhere and not elling anyone. It was probably a server upgrade as you say Ian, I must say I am impressed with the Tecnical jargon /images/forum/icons/wink.gif

Better still, get an automatic mouse clicker. Going through this site on a regular basis certainly makes the clicking finger sore!!!!
