Connection Problems

[Xerokine]

Anyone else having connection problems right now? I'm able to connect to multiple different MUDs, browse the internet and log into every messenger I have downloaded however I am not able to effectivly sign into ArmageddonMUD. My problem or is this happening to the rest of you?


*Edited* What I have found to be even more interesting is that I am unable to view www.armageddon.org. Would anyone have any ideas as to why I would not be able to connect and what not with these very few details of the problem? There has to be a connection problem between the ginka and I, but what would cause that in a split second since I was logged into my character not onlt 30 minutes ago?

Try going to http://64.252.79.51.  If that works you are having DNS issues.

If that doesn't work try a traceroute and see where it dies as you are having downstream router issues.

I'm observing the same problem since a couple of weeks. www.armageddon.org, ginka.armageddon.org don't get resolved by my current provider's DNS server.
From other sites the domain name resolution for armageddon.org works just fine.
At firest I hoped it would resolve itself, since it's not within my realm to fix. Then I got used to it. Now I'm learning that others experience the same. Hmm.

Now, I've just gotten back to work and all of a sudden everything is working fine.. Why? Who the fuck knows. And yes, I am going to agree with Quo on this one. What you said is exactly what was happening to me.. A very interesting problem, indeed. Could it be something to do with the Server itself? Or would it be something to do with IE?

I'd try using different DNS servers next time this crops up.  I've turned up some good, working DNS server IPs over the years with a groups.google.com search for 'public dns server'.
