Title: Viewing Nukeworker
Post by: grantime on Nov 21, 2006, 10:54

Perhaps a stupid question but....  I can accesss the nukeworker website from everywhere but my home computer.  I get a website not found message.  I was able to access it from home up until the last couple of weeks.  I also recently (not sure if before or after problem started) installed latest version outlook.  As best I can tell none of my other favorites will not connect.  Any ideas on what the problem is or how to fix?

sounds like a browser issue......can always try updating or switching to firefox.  will anything else connect such as web aps like yahoo or msn?

It may be browser but I can get to yahoo and msn. I'm wondering if it may have something to do with my ISP.  Something about the way they are set up got me locked out of yahoo websites for a while.

is it dial up or bb? do you have a firewall?

it is a wireless system.  Faster than dial up but not as quick as cable.  I talked to my ISP a bit ago and they said to reboot the wireless modem to get a new address and try again.  Maybe that will help

Well reseting modem didn't help.  I guess my next off day will be on phone with ISP.  It seems to affect all the computers at my house but I can log on from other places.  Its very strange.  Could wireless router be messing up?  I've reset it as well with no change.

See if the manufacturer has an update (or patch) for your router. I had some odd problems with my router. After spending days with ISP tech support (OK, days for me and the hold music, minutes for the tech!) the update fixed the problem.

I finally got everything sorted out.  I finally got hold of help desk with my local ISP.  They told me that there had been a problem with spam and some servers had either gotten blocked or were blocking my ISP(not really clear which) within 5 minutes they had fixed it.  Good to be able to reconnect again
