SOH forum connectivity

[mongoose]

Am I the only one in the USA with connectivity problems? I'm in the Kansas City suburbs. Most of the time I have to switch to an English IP addy to get good connectivity.

Expect more, we’re advised the hosting company are doing maintenance today.

here at middle europe having such SOH connectivity problems relatively often, usually at morning time (a hour or two back).

I'm in Australia and I sometimes get "The server is too busy" message. It doesn't always happen, but at certain times it can be pretty predictable.

Im also in Australia and at times I need to reload pages up to 5 times before it will connect.

Is it because I use firefox?

Who's your ISP?
The only time I get less than instant connection is during maintenance (which I know about anyway) or heavy traffic periods.
The time difference between Oz and the US is often the cause of slow loading.
FWIW Firefox isn't a problem and I'm in Flinders on Bass Strait.

Hi Wombat, I'm located in Licola on a sat connection with Telstra but I have no issues with other sites, its no biggie it doesn't take much to reload until its up, I was more concerned about firefox being the issue.

hi Manny,

I am having enormous difficulties connecting from NZ. I blame Firefox. I suspect that some lag times when connecting are outside of updated Firefox parameters.

So I am using Chrome now, much better!

Its strange since I changed to the fixed style from the fluid style its working perfectly the last few times Ive been here
