Sam1647545489 Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 I keep getting this page now for some reason on my desktop when I try to load firefox. Server not found Firefox can't find the server at forums.offtopic.com. * Check the address for typing errors such as ww.example.com instead of http://www.example.com * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

Cougar1647545494 Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 I think road runners being extremely gay. My internet has been weird, it's on, but a lot of pages aren't loading. Anyone know if that net neutrality was passed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaSSon Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 I'm having similar problems here as well. I've tried it on two different computers, so I'm sure it's the connection. Road runner is being really weird. I can't even get onto e-bay to check my auction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmrmnhrm Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 Two suggestions: 1. Follow the instructions to disable DNS failure caching at http://cable-dsl.home.att.net/ (You'll probably want to do the TCP Receive and Send window patches as well, hint hint) 2. Override RR's DNS servers by using the tier 2 servers listed at http://www.opennic.unrated.net/public_servers.html Side suggestion: Bookmark http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm and regularly replace \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\hosts with their version to cut down on ads and spyware tracing.

nurkvinny Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 I too am having this problem. I thought it was just me but im glad to see that it is not, I think I'll just wait it out and see if it improves +1. It's not Firefox. It's not settings. It's RR.

Guest 78novaman Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 I've been having DNS issues all day today. In plain english that means road runners servers are not sending me to the web site when I punch in http://www.whatever.com If you go on thier site you can see thier network is all fubared. http://www.help.rr.com/HMSLogic/main_contentwell.aspx Once you choose the correct drop down boxes and the next page loads, look in the middle for a network status. About everywhere in columbus was red today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
