Title: Tech help needed
Post by: Nails on October 27, 2011, 08:26:31 PM
For the last 2 days I thought getbig was down I keep getting site not responding.... I have a Mac laptop, at home I use wifi on my iPhone an same thing unable to connect but then I noticed today when i was oUt and about I could pull up getbig on my iPhone then got home and same thing cannot connect to site, so I turn off the wifi on my iPhone and bak in The site... Now it's only happening to getbig.com I can access any other site I want...

Why would my home connection be blocking getbig.com???

run a tracert to getbig.com to see were it falls off.  May be an ISP peering issue.

It told me 'site not responding' for 3 days. Really fucked up my morning routine. I usually surf getbig while sipping on my morning coffee but had to kill some babies instead.

So it's not just me... Ok

But why only at my home and not using the Att connection?
Havnt tried loggin into it from another comPuter, it's really fucking up my work, it's making me productive  >:(

Because your home connection is using a path to Getbig that has a router down somewhere.  The ATT connection uses a different route to get to Getbig.  Nothing you can do about it.  Only wait for someone to fix their router or the routing tables in the router

I have timewarner. It happens every once in a while, but only effects getbig. I just assume its getbigs fault

I have issues all the time. Doesn't matter if it's Clearwire or whatever in my neighborhood. I can Wifi into all my neighbors accounts b/c they have NO PASSWORD protection ~ that and the fact that they just don't care.

Sometimes you just can't get on the forum. It happens quite often. You can get into "Pictures" or whatever else, but the forum itself lately has been a bitch.

Around here it all breaks down to the same server anyway. I'm assuming it's a bandwidth issue along with an occaisonal server issue and possibly some of those viruses that keep popping up... and we all know Macs can't deal with viruses.
