Group of cannot connect.... - Kyle - 22.06.2013

Hello,

I'm writing this while connected to a VPN as there are a group of people who cannot connect to SA-MP Forums:

When we try the domain it doesn't work (page cannot be displayed), if we try the IP, it works... It's strange.

Here are the people who I know cannot connect:

- Myself
- [nov]Austin
- Skimmer
- Kirollos
- StuartD
- Jack45101
- Ez (from IRC)

I'm sure there are more people but these are just a few of who I could get hold of.

Majority yes.

UPDATE: The forums are NOW working for some random reason.

It wasn't working for me just now, I'm from the UK too.

EDIT: not working again. :/

If you can connect by IP and not by the domain name, then it looks like there's something wrong with the dns servers of your isp.

I suggest switching to an alternative dns server such as the ****** dns and then try again.

I had similar problems a few weeks ago, I changed my DNS to opendns and it works fine now.
