I'm on my laptop right now from a different than usual location, so wonder if it's just me or my wifi connection, or ....I connect to other trackers no problem, but both TheBox and TheEmpire return the message that the server is not responding, and this has been for over an hour. Anyone else?

works for me on True ultra highspeed in BKK.

Many hours later and different server, working for me now. Don't know what the problem was, but as long as it was solved, ....

Must be the university server blocking those two sites, for some reason.

Same problem this morning, can't connect to their sites, and torrent files downloaded on a different server last night won't open.

Curious that other sites have no problem connecting, just those two. Somebody at the university doesn't like 'em. Oh well, other fish in the sea.

UPDATE today TheBox tracker is down there's a thread in their support forum, apparently some type of DoS attack.

TheEmpire is up as normal.

EDIT As of 11.30AM BKK time the tracker appears to be back up

NO problems accessing at 07:00 GMT

and my over night scheduled downloads were fine.

Some of you might want to try Tv Chaos UK Same kind of content with a few different shows. Google it.

Update.

TheBox does seem to have had problems today but OK now,

however The Empire's tracker is not responding.

Just be patient is the best advice.

I just signed up to The Empire. Admittedly I do not recognise most of the programs but I did download a couple.

why does the discussion of using VPN's to view Hulu or netflix get locked by admins.....but the moderators themselves openly discuss the downloading of of copyright material from thebox.

Double standards i think so. Pretty pathetic really.
