Is there a problem with AB tonight?

[factor-fiction]

When I try to log on I get a message saying the site can't be found. I have had to get in via a long way round. Is there a problem for others?

[ummmm]

Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to theanswerbank.co.uk

Been getting it for 3 days now. Only this second managed to get back on. It's the same with other browsers as well.

I had trouble too, when I googles AB it said the server had failed to respond (or something similar).

Thank god! I thought it was just me factor30. I keep getting thrown out as well when I try to go to a different question.

"DNS throwing a bit of a wobbler"

You sure, Mark?

It was resolving fine for me and as I doubt everyone on AB is using the same DNS servers a DNS problem wouldn't effect everyone at the same time or resolve fix it's self at the same time. looked more like a server or connection to the server problem to me.

Just managed to get on after 30mins trying

[MarkRae]

Tracert was resolving it to a totally different IP address somewhere in Indonesia rather than the usual choopa.net in the States...

[mrs_overall]

Yes - it is boring tonight

[cazzz1975]

maybe the server has a trapped beard preventing it to run properly?

[ChuckFickens]

Have you got some kind of DNS diverter on your connection? you know, like openDNS take you to their own page suggesting other sites if the site you are looking for can't be found or doesn't respond? 'cause it was still resolving to the correct address for me just no response.
