Ongoing problem connecting to CFC

[Till]

I tried to do this when you showed it to me in #fiftychat, but I think I need to register an account or something with Open DNS? I don't know, but when I changed it how it told me to, nothing happened, and I still couldn't log onto CFC.

No, there's no need to register. If it didn't work, then it's not a DNS problem and i'm stumped!

I am STILL having this problem. I cannot get into CFC from home except through myinternetproxy. I have no trouble getting in at work, however.

I guess the whole server change screwed up other people's ISP's routing

Could you try contacting your ISP about it?

In your email, you may want to include tracerroute info:

tracert civfanatics.com

You can type that in command prompt.

I have been having this problem also, so if anyone figured it out tell me, as a large part of my time here is downloading and uploading, neither of which works through the Proxy thing..

Dunno if this is related - but for the last 20 minutes i could not connect to the forum at all. Neither that nor the chatroom.

I was unable to connect today for at least 3 hours!

Any other site worked, I tried clearing my cache and cookies and it was not related.

 

[Thunderfall]

hmm... I will let our host know.

 

[Mirc]

Thanks. Apparently, there were also a couple of double posts in the time, so I think I wasn't the only one with the problem.

They must've banned Romania for a few hours.

Contacted them -- no dice. They said nothing on their end is blocking the connection.

Cata, Mirc, I doubt it's a Romanian problem, I couldn't load CFC for about half the day yesterday (about noon til evening GMT).

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

I'm still being forced to get here through a proxy. I even tried it on the other computer in the house, and it had the same problem!

CFC works fine for me, although I am in the US (and decently close to TF).

I finally can enter cfc. I disabled firewall option from my thomson 710 router. Its not the best solution, but it works for me. I dont know the reason (only hapens with cfc, and only since the server changes), but maybe it works for other users.

 

[jkp1187]

I *STILL* cannot get to CFC from home. Firewalls disabled, still no luck.

Do you have cookies enabled? Because I couldn't connect either until I turned on cookies...

Firefox 2 and Safari 3 are way better than IE BTW.

Yes, and I always use Firefox.

 

[D0NIMATRIX]

Yes, and I always use Firefox.

But are cookies enabled?

But are cookies enabled?

That is the question that "Yes" was answering.
