Default AAARGH! No AdventureGamers.com at home!

For a whole week now I'm not able to reach adventuregamers from home. It gives me a 'Page not available message' and something with a DNS whatsitsay?

I'm going insane! An AdventureGamers.com-lacking weekend is coming closer, and so is my boss. Gotta run!

Guh. Sounds like your ISP's DNS server is acting up. Not much you can do unless you call them and let them know something is wrong with it, but I doubt they can do anything.
In case you need my email for that email I requested you send from home and can't access the PM to get it, it's [email protected]

Edit: Fucking board.

Your email is "email"?

It's the first thing I'll do when I'm home, thanks!

And for Chello...

This is a DNS problem at Chello. I have Chello too and haven't been able to access the site at home since Thursday last week.
Please call their help desk and complain. I've called in three times but they haven't taken any action.

In a couple of days I'm going to be moving houses and I'm likely not to have an internet connection for the next 2-3 weeks

Woe is me.

Aaaall right!!! Today I can finally reach the site from home (where I am right now) again!

It feels like I've been away for so long! I'm gonna sue Chello for the emotional damage you know.

Go to your command line (Start > Run > "cmd" or "command")
Type: tracert www.adventuregamers.com
If it doesn't do anything at all, or doesn't get past brain.chello.nl, it's Chello. If it reaches America and then gets stuck, it's AG.

Thanx Marek... I'll remember it! So I don't have to blame you* instead of Chellow...



[*] you = AGers
