Connecting To U.S. Sites, Carrier True.

[elshaheen]

My bosses company has a website being hosted in the U.S. and for the last week, he and anyone in the office has not been able to connect to their webpage. They just recently switched from a thai webhosting provider for poor service and technical support.

Is anyone else having a problem conneting to the U.S. other then the major providers such as Google.com and major news sources?

Can you share the url? That way others, using different ISPs, can test it.

We did a trace route and the responces did go through, but the numbers were very low. Traffic here in Thailand is normal.

Have you tried using a webproxy (eg. hidemybox.com) to access your site? (For the Thaivisa admins/mods: This is not against the law, assuming your website hasn't actually been blocked by the authorities.)

Perhaps switch from using the ISP supplied DNS servers, and use for example googles DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4). I suggest them over others as they have consistently quicker lookups.

No problems...on TOT here in western Bangkok. Going to the CNN, Bloomberg, CNBC, Google (including email server), and other US web sites numerous times a day/night...no problem reaching any websites.

The hidemybox dot com site is blocked by the local Big Bro on my TOT line.
