fv1609 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Does anybody else have problems getting into MLU? I know there was a thread a while back when there were major outages, but for months now I find for long periods in the day & night the site becomes unavailable. I can find no optimum time of reliability of access. Last night I was answering a thread then it became unavailable then tried later it was there. Now this morning go to post something & it has gone. At first I thought it was some sort of time rationing, but I can find no logical pattern to the outages which can last for hours. I thought it was my PC, but the same happens on the phone.

steveo578 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 fv1609 Steve, I've just tried at 1126 but still can't get in. Hi clive I used http://www.mapleleafup.org/forums/ and haven't had a problem so all I can think is there may be a confict on ISPs or something weby-spidery:cheesy:.

fv1609 Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 I've just tried it & nothing. I linked from google & nothing. Tried your pasted link Steve & got in. Went back my old bookmark & got in & it works on the phone again. So I've just hit it at a lucky time it seems! But most days when I look I would say it is down at least 80% of the time.:???

mcspool Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 This is an ongoing problem, and the problems accessing the site differs from user to user. Somehow the settings which allow you at access the site differ from internet service provider to provider. In other words, your next door neighbour might have problems accessing the site while you have very fast access. As Maple Leaf Up is run from private funds (donations are always welcome!), this problem cannot be solved completely, as this would mean more time and money which are both restricted. So we give the visitors a set of working URL's, which should give you access to the site at any given time: http://www.mapleleafup.org/forums/ http://mapleleafup.org/forums/ http://orbit.dnsrouter.com/~mlu/forums/ http://www.class-five.com/~mlu/forums/ If none of the above works, please try again later! Hope this is of help, best regards, Hanno Spoelstra Maple Leaf Up Forum co-founder, contributor and adminstrator PS: for the technies among us, the most likely cause is a DNS problem. Could you possibly help solve it? Please contact me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 Hanno. Ok thanks for that explanation. In fact I have just gone on MLU whilst I could access it asking if anyone had problems. Not so much to moan but to ask directly what the issue was, rather carry on talking about it on another forum perhaps without perhaps the MLU organisers knowing. But you clearly have a finger on the pulse, many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runflat Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 I have intermitant problems and always assumed it was something to do with waiting for an open link on a passing satelite or somefink... But there again I know nothing about the technology. Sooner or later access is obtained, so I just live with it. I'll must try those other links and see what happens.
