Is it just me or is the Forums being slow Huh

It just hangs on waiting for www.simviation..... blah blah For 20seconds before receiving anything Undecided

And anytime I download anything from anywhere i get about 30kb/s but when I download something in steam (most of you wont know what that is, It's a online games store) I get a healthy 150Kb/s Huh

So what is going on Huh

Only a problem if it goes on. These things are always temporary.
If you want to try an immediate fix you can

1. Re-connect to your ISP (reboot router?)
2. Reboot your machine
3. Try a 'tracert' - Go to Start - Run and type: tracert www.simviation.com ; - watch the results. It may tell you if there is a problem at some point between your PC and simviation.

Think Global. It's the world we live in.

There's nothing worse than having a Poo Modem... Cry

....

I find that if my Computer has been running for many hours during the day, lots of "things" start to slow down.... Shocked

...!

But, as Pete suggested, a shut-down and a restart, (which resets the Modem as well), generally cures the problem....
...and is always worth performing, before loading up any Computer Game......a fresh start... Wink

...!

Paul...with a cute little plug and play, Zoom, ADSL USB wired modem...(and no Router)... Kiss
