tng.community connection error

Recommended Posts

Since approx a week I’m no longer able to visit this site via my normal network (wired & wifi) connection.

It says: ERR_CONNECTION_TIME_OUT

Searched the internet, did a DNS flush an used a different DNS.

I did a clean install of Win 11 (was about time) and I did a full reset of my modem.

All was unsuccesful.

Access via the browser of my phone is possible if I disable wifi.

This is pretty annoying :-(

Anyone any ideas?

Rob,

Did you report the problem to Darrin and provide him your IP address?  Maybe something changed on Simply Hosting's site that hosts the TNG Community Forum.

That happens regularly to me. Depending on how much time I spend on the website and the number of searches I perform, at least once a week. The solution that works for me is to remove all cache and cookies from your website in your browser. Then it works fine again. Never understood why, and it's a real PITA, but I learned to live with it.

Thx Fluffy,

Yes, did all that.

Currently in touch with Darrin to see if he knows what's wrong.

Will post here once connection is re-established.

Darrin might not know what is wrong, but he can open a ticket with Simply Hosting who hosts the forum to see if they can determine whether a recently added mod_security rule is causing the issue.  I do not have an account on Simply Hosting.

Hi Ken,

That's exactly what Darrin is doing.

We now know Simply Hosting isn't blocking my IP address.

My own ISP is looking into this too.

Maybe your IP addres isn't a static IP address which might be the cause.
