Default Re: Technical (internet) help PLEASE...

Best thing you can do is contact the internet provider, if you're having problems so they can investigate. The way things should work is your connection goes to say comcast, and they connect to ATT/Verizon via a frame relay cloud, which picks the route to the CA server, wherever it is, and if it's not routing correctly, they can modify the route or find out if there's a problem. Most likely there's an outage somewhere that's causing the page to be unavailable. Something you could try is using an anonymous proxy server in your internet browser, which basically routes your traffic from their location to here, which assuming it's not on the same nodes, will find a route that's not bad.

No, because it isn't your problem, it is CAs problem. Someone from CA would need to contact them or their account rep.
