manutoo Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 (edited) Hello, since I came back to Thailand almost 2 weeks ago, the Forum is pretty slow, and most images, including emoticons & avatars, aren't loaded. It seems to getting slightly better as today I got about 10 or 20% of images loading. I'm using Firefox 3.6, but I just check with IE9 & Chrome and got the same result. Is it because the Forum is overcrowded ? Note: a search with "image loading" didn't return anything... EDIT: I'm on TRUE Adsl Edited October 31, 2011 by manutoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahtin Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Blame True. Happens to me often too, sharing True wifi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manutoo Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 I forgot to tell : it also affects all images in the classifieds section. My guess is that http://static.thaivisa.com is more or less failing 90-95% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdnvic Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 It's a distributed hosting system with theoretically unlimited bandwidth. Most often in Thailand it's the local IPS's cache and DNS that causes problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manutoo Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 As far as I recall, I had the exact same problem during my trip in France, so I doubt it depends of the DNS or ISP... And just checked through a French proxy, and some images loaded, but not all, and it was very slow... A DNS problem would likely mean that nothing load, which is not the case. static.thaivisa.com translates to 209.190.1.125, and ping is stable at around 300ms, without packet dropping. And I don't get this kind of trouble on any of the other websites I frequent regularly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokie36 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I've also noticed Thai Visa has become slower in the last few days.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdnvic Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I've also noticed Thai Visa has become slower in the last few days.. The floods have caused traffic to jump considerably, at a time when Thai ISPs are having some real issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I've also noticed Thai Visa has become slower in the last few days.. The floods have caused traffic to jump considerably, at a time when Thai ISPs are having some real issues. 10033 active user(s) (in the past 60 minutes) Haven't seen it less than that for a few days now. Suspect a lot of network rerouting going on to get around flooded or power outages at exchanges and may affect some members more than others.

manutoo Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 Woh, everything seems to be fine again today, all images are here..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkerry Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Been having the same problems and not the first time either. Been using TOT outside the floods and True inside the flooded areas and got very sick of seeing waiting for static.thaivisa. For the first time in days half an hour ago things started working again as they should. Changing DNS made no difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handydog Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Currently outside Thailand and I have noticed a distinct slowing of the site also, Ping is horrid at over 600ms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
