chownah Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 For the last few days...maybe a week....I'm having trouble accessing TV....really slow connection speeds...lots of 'cannot find server' screens.....also bad formatting once a window does open on about half of my attempts. I'm wondering if TV is having server problems or if I should look elsewhere for the problem. Chownah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jai Dee Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Working fine for me Chownah. Maybe your local ISP is having connection problems? Have you tried the usual cache flush, delete cookies and temporary files etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Mines fine too, Chownah. What ISP do you use? Have you tried changing your DNS settings to Open DNS? See their website opendns.org for instructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chownah Having exactly the same problems Chownah......never happened before but for last 3-4 days all of the above issues. Thought it was a TV server problem but in view of other posts maybe not. Will follow this thread (if able to access!!) for hopefully a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Just checked with our server guys: No bandwidth problems in Singapore where we are hosted. No problems with server or forum database/software. It's likely a local ISP problem. Try change dns to opendns.org, as mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundman Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I am having similar problems, tv and a few other sites that used to rocket are now slower than dial-up. Tried opendns.org but the site wouldn't open. opendns.com works - going to try it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chownah Posted February 16, 2008 Author Share Posted February 16, 2008 I changed to opendns and it might have improved the situation but it did not fix it. I try to make changes to my computer one at at time and then wait awhile so that I can evaluate its effect over a day or two before implementing another change. I'll probably try something else (delete cookies?) later today or tomorrow and then hopefully get back with the results. Chownah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fast for a few seconds & then at a slow walk for the next ten or fifteen seconds. Edit: Maybe somebody within Thailand could post dns numbers they are getting good performance with?

lopburi3 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Several of us have had extreme difficulty since the Middle East cable cut. Weekday evening after about 6 PM and all weekend have been slow to unusable. We have had multi hours without being able to download a complete page. This has been using TRUE here in Bangkok. And in general is more apparent on TV than on other sites. Others have not reported the problems until now. Today TRUE is not too bad (much better than last weekend) so perhaps others are due to suffer. Sorry. The change in DNS does not seem to offer a solution but Open DNS of 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 does seem to resolve faster when circuit is usable.

Somtamnication Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 For the past 3 days, same issue. Long time for the servers to be reached. Must be local ISP. Once I turn on the proxy, TV comes up fine. Otherwise, slow as molasses. From Phuket, on Maxnet, err, I mean MinimumNet. I love Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chownah Posted February 17, 2008 Author Share Posted February 17, 2008 I deleted my cookies yesterday and got immediate relief. My access was very good pretty much all day today....I would say approximately back to normal on a mediocre to slow internet access day. I did notice that I had a difficult time replying in threads and ended up losing alot of text...now I copy all of my replies before sending them and have had to re-submit probably 8 or 10 replies....this is much much worse than usual. Just this evening it seems to be getting rough again but it could just be dsl overload....I'll see how it is tomorrow. Chownah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chownah Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 I just wanted to confirm that everything seems back to normal and it seems that deleting the cookies did the trick. Chownah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Actually the circuits seem to be much, much better today than they have been for several weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Reimar Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 No problems at all. Seems to back all to normal. My last test from a few minutes ago: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
