Is the intraweb broken?

**Plakespear** · 04-07-2005, 06:43 PM

I seem to have entered a parrallel universe where the only website I can seem to get working is the TGR forums. And even there, the links don't work,and all the IMG posted show up as little red X's. What the hell is going on here?

the end is near...

Yes the comcast folks suck at least they allow us to see this page!

**funkendrenchman** · 04-07-2005, 07:15 PM

I guess Comcast is multi dimensional cause mine works.

What's really lame is that I have to use IE to view ski/snowboard forum because firefox wants to download the page forum.php, then it justs shows the code for php......that's really gay. Especially when i can view the rest of this site with firefox....

btw-IE blows!!!

**Steezus Christ** · 04-07-2005, 07:30 PM

I.E. sucks, but for me it works better than Firefox does. Anyways, storm's a brewin in the cloud right now. I would be less of a dork if I did not know that a cloud was more than something that occurs in the atmosphere.

This is weird, my connection just shit the bed as well. TGR loads fine, but damn everything else is slow as fuck or not loading as well. I suppose this is a good reason to get back to writing some code. At least my network is fine.

**Steezus Christ** · 04-07-2005, 07:54 PM

Well it looks like the root of the problem was a vulnerability that Al Gore overlooked back when he was putting this Internet shit together.

**JMO** · 04-07-2005, 07:56 PM

Ditto this a way.

This reminds me of that episode of Cheers where, one by one, they all start going downstairs and nobody ever comes back.

That was the scariest episode of Cheers EVER!

Sorry I took the AOL floppy out, my bad. Carry on.

**phUnk** · 04-07-2005, 08:35 PM

Yes, Comcast is having DNS issues.

Add 4.2.2.1 to your PC's list of DNS servers it uses and that'll fix it.

I'd go into terribly painful detail on how to accomplish this, but I've got a bunch of porn to go find before Friday NSFW.

"I know they call it a blowjob, honey, but believe me, you need to suck."

**Steezus Christ** · 04-07-2005, 08:53 PM

Actually it is like saying this board has its share of faggots that I would rather not deal with. But the boards are interesting enough that I will live with the fact that there are some faggots on these boards.

Edit-And no, I am not an Expert when it comes to the English language, but I thought that can't with the apostrophe would mean can not. "Can not you read?"

Holy Shit! Don't know where phUnk found that, but it worked for me, nice fix!

Windows XP users go to:

control panel>local area connection(your internet connection)>properties>in the list, click on internet protocol(tcp/ip)>properties>click "use the following DNS server addresses" and then add 4.2.2.1 in the "preferred DNS server box">click ok.

there ya go.

**danadog** · 04-07-2005, 09:38 PM

thanks Phunk and Blurred!!!
So now my shit is working, will I have to make changes down the road when comcast fixes their issues?

That's really odd Blurred -- I can use FireFox to access every site that I visit with the exception of my online portfolio for school, which logs me out unless I use IE (it is Mozilla compatible, but not FireFox

)

I'm no computer whiz but that sucks, I despise IE...I would ask if you had the most up to date version, but mine has worked regardless of the version that I have used, and I have been using it since the start....currently on version 1.0.2
