DreamViews Lockout
Hey gang, maybe one of you can help me out with this...from time to time I browse the forums...occasionally I'll go to a topic and it'll just keep loading...I re-load the page and it says "page cannot be displayed" (I use firefox :P) and I can't see dreamviews or even GET BACK to dreamviews forums for about 30 minutes. This happens like clockwork (regarding the 30 minutes lockout). I can go to ANY OTHER site of m choosing...but dreamviews won't load, not even to get to the site or the forums...help?

ISP and/or network card problems are the first things to come to mind.
(Or a firewall problem, now that I think about it. I just haven't used a firewall in ages.)
Next time such a lockout occurs, ping and traceroute to dreamviews.com and see what that yields.

ping? traceroute? -blinks- :hrm: :microwave:

This explains it better than I ever could, Jeff: Ping and Traceroute

That happens to me sometimes to, but I just hit the refresh button and it loads right back up. You could reroute your stream to see if for some reason DV is shutting down yours. There are a number of sites that will do that for you.
