It's allover red rover.
:fingerscrossed:
Thanks Neil, and please say thanks to Steven too.
:brava:fingerscrossed:
Back up to proper speed for me. Thanks for getting it sorted :2tsup:
So far so good.:2tsup:
Best it has worked for me in months, thank you.
pker:U
Looks like the Squirrels have been fed.
This problem over the last week or so certainly kept Steven the 'puta guru and Neil a tad busy.
Thanks guys for all the extra work.

Everyones patience and feedback over the last week (and several months) is also very appreciated. :2tsup:
Solved :2tsup: or at least it is at the moment - great work by those involved.
All happening on Star Wars Day,
"May the fourth be with you."
yep blindingly (almost) faster than the last few days
great work guys
A ping of woodworkforims.com currently shows a consistent speed of 195ms which is the fastest the forums have ever run since coming on line 25 years ago.
I think it's time to break this one out again. http://ubeaut.biz/woohoo.gif
I don't think I'm being premature this time.
As Steven said thanks to everyone for being so patient over the last week and for the feedback. Without that feedback it can take a lot more time to get to the root of some problems.
Cheers - Neil :2tsup:
Hi,
Looking good now, but went to bed half an hour after the time others were getting in last night as I was still being timed out.
Good on you all
:):D:U:U:D:)
(all grins)
Fantastic job guys. As someone said earlier, it's the fastest I have ever seen it run:yippee:
I notice you haven't put that big tempting red button on again Neil:roll:
Thanks for the fix guys, it is now officially awesome!
Your efforts running and keeping the forum going is much appreciated.:2tsup::2tsup:
Cheers, Ian
Totally agree guys - fantastic job - Well Done :clap:
Sorry to throw a spanner in the works, but I have noticed a weird side effect of the new server.
Since the latest migration (last night), Outlook is sending all new post/PM notification emails to my junk folder. I've told it 4 times now that [email protected] is safe, but they're still getting filtered :?
Is anyone else getting this problem? Any ideas why it's happening?
EDIT: Adding WWF to my contacts seems to have fixed it.
Same with me. All the notifications are being sent to my junk folder as well, even though it has been advised that WWF is safe several times. :?Quote:

If it helps as another data point, since the server move I haven't been able to connect from my home connection (Optus) but going through work (Internet traffic goes via the US) or a Telstra 4G connection works fine.Quote:

Also the DNS needed to be updated from your service provider(s) which can take from a few minutes to a few days depending on how on the ball they are with their updates.Quote:

Talking as an ex Admin, we definitely don't want this relaxed, if you're sending that many messages, I suggest you either get email addresses or use an instant message like Skype etc for those that you're in regular contact withQuote:

Rob's issue sounds like mine (DNS points to 209.95.48.51 for me, which seems to be the new address?). It seems like the server is just plain not responding to me, I can't ping the server unless I use a different Internet link.
I'm a network engineer in my day job, happy to help if I can be of any assistance!
Change your dns to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
These are googles public DNS. It's fast, free and soon to be secure.
How?Quote:

Sorry Neil & Steven.
I have no access to WWF at all at home on either Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Safari neither my usual Firefox since 3:30pm yesterday... Running Windows 7.. I was still out this morning.
It works from daughters home in Penrith on Safari so who knows!
Cheers crowie

Steven looking into it.
However for anyone who is still having a problem please try doing traceroute for the forums from the command prompt using the below command:
tracert woodworkforums.com
This will show if there are any dropped routes along the path to the destination server.
Click here for info on using traceroute if you're not sure how it works.
If you find any dropouts please copy and past the full result from the traceroute into this thread.
Hope this helps.
Cheers - Neil :U
Sure - I can't even ping the server. Traceroute from an optus cable connection (122.108.189.x) which can't connect:

Normally use a notification to bring the forum up these days not in my tabs set up at all. Will however try it.
As just replied to Neil never in 10 yrs have I had 145sec show before using PM's after just sorry I said 3 it was the the wait time for the third one to be sent. Funny I seem to get replies faster than 14sec between :roll:Quote:

Timeouts from this point to #30
If you are on a PC, you could try flushing your DNS by using: ipconfig /flushdns on the cmd line.
For other OSs see here: https://www.whatsmydns.net/flush-dns.html
Did it, no improvement. I still have to use TOR to get around the server that is timing me out.Quote:
