Just what the title says... I've been noticing this happening more frequently lately and while I am not blaming captalk site or anything because I have a problem with my mail provider gong down regularly too and they say it isn't them either so I'm just trying to see if what I am seeing is true or not.
*me waits to move, kicks the box! I hate my internet*
At times I too have difficulty getting in.....I haven't gotten the page that says unavailable, but it does take a bit of time to connect recently.
I just posted, but it took me so many tries and I gave up cuz it would give me the not available page everytime I tried to post to most of the other threads around here.
I've had problems occasionally, usually says 'unavailable"; but not always. At least cap.gov is a whole lot more reliable. . . .
sigh... I'll come back next week when this isn't so aggrevating. Its happening to me a lot, pure random... I think its my internet not captalk.
I had no idea cap.gov had reliability issues, but then again they should with the amount of people needing to access Eservices more regularly now that more features/approvals are needing to be done there.
I'm not having any trouble. Maybe the weather in your area affecting your internet service?

You're comparing apples and Oldsmobiles.
seems like my issue is fixed... I rebooted my PC and it did the trick. But I had noticed an odd disappearing of captalk in the days before then today I noticed almost every website was doing it.
So I had to ask, sorry :(
powercycling a DSL/cable modem and one's router before you reboot your PC never hurts either.
Unless of course, your modem is on fire. ;)
I have this problem about one day a week.
I have a problem where I can click on two or three threads and then it bogs down. I can still get in but it takes a long time to open a new page.
Yeah, happens to me too and I usually connect through one of our T3 lines at work and I know for sure it isn't our network or my laptop.
The problem I have isn't so much not being able to access the site, but occasionally it has unbelievably long load times...like right now actually...
I'm not complain' though - CAPTalk treats me well :)
About once a week from several hours to all day I cannot access the site. It just tries to load for a few minutes and then tells me the page is unavailable...

You're absolutely right, I was going to do it and reboot the PC in the process but while I was rebooting I forgot and then came back and it worked just fine... odd.
My ISP has been such a crapper, they are forcing me to move (as they are the only ISP out here) and I'm tired of shelling money for service I don't even get that I pay for.
Uh Oh! I think it happened again - is everyone OK?
Yep. This time it was our domain registrar: http://captalk.net/index.php?topic=4338
:P
I sometimes also get the "page is unavailable".
