I would appreciate some help here.
We run with Idnet from 2 separate addresses and have the same problem with both.
If we try www.solwise.co.uk in any browser, it always times out; whilst a tracert works with no problem.
If we use an IP anonymiser http://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/http://www.solwise.co.uk it resolves correctly
We have flushed the DNS cache with ipconfig /dnsflush.
I emailed Idnet CS at lunchtime today and got a reply even though it's Sunday, but Simon can't replicate the problem and is unable to help me.
Anyone have any thoughts on what can be causing this ?
thanks
Im only tyre kicking here mate but have you tried using other browsers?
Yep,
Firefox, IE, Opera and even using an Ubuntu 6.06 Live cd to take windows out of the equation !
If you can tracert the domain name (www.solwise.co.uk) successfully, then it's not a DNS problem, it's a possible routing problem, which would also explain why you can get there without a problem using a proxy. My connection isn't really up to testing for problems at present(!), but I could resolve the domain name without a problem for what that's worth.
Thanks
