iceberg Posted June 22, 2003 Report Share Posted June 22, 2003 Earlier this year I was able to access the Beechbrook web pages and download examples. For the past 2 months or so I just cannot get to that site using Tiscali broadband. I have tried on two computers (one Wme, the other XP) but both using IE6 with various settings but to no avail. It seems to start loading, then dies and returns the page not found error. Oddly enough if I use dial-up, I can get to the site but a download is then out of the question due to the time involved. I have put the problem to my ISP (Tiscali) but am just being fobbed off with irrelevant answers.Has anyone else experienced this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cottage Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 Sorry there are a few having trouble reaching my site (Beechbrook.Com). The site is quite active and I have not heard or experienced any troubles from others. I have been able to connect via ISDN, Cable modem and T3 with no problem.Regards,Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceberg Posted July 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 Follow up:After a request for the reults of a 'ping' and 'tracert' commands to beechbrook, Tiscali said they would follow this up urgently but I am still waiting.On a recent visit to my daughter, I used her broadband (not Tiscali) and downloaded several examples with no problems.On my broadband I tried Anonymizer - this allowed me to get to the beechbrook/pte page OK and I attempted to download some pte files. These seemed to download OK but Winzip would not unzip them and the files seemed to be slightly shorter than should have been. Needless to say Anonymizer claim that they do not alter files in any way. Strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
