Don't worry, I have the same problem as well. As did feyd the other night when we were speaking. Along with the cookie problem I mentioned.
I wouldn't say 90% of the time. I'd say 20% of the time it's unreachable. Seems to be sporadic in uptime and downtime. I took the liberty of pinging the server while it was down, and ping was able to ping the server, so the server didn't crash. Perhaps it's a resource limitation of the (maybe shared) server.
So, to reiterate my problems..
-Can't reach the site ~20% (total guess) of the time
-Can't login some of the time
Both problems seem to be very sporadic.

Set Search Time - A google chrome extension. When you search only results from the past year (or set time period) are displayed. Helps tremendously when using new technologies to avoid outdated results.
It seems we are experiencing dns issues: when I was unable to reach the devnet from Ukraine directly, I was able to use it through US-based proxy server. And vice versa. The problem still exists, you may check it yourself using various web-based dns tools (be sure to check both forums.devnetwork.net and devnetwork.net)
While the server shares it's space with a few other sites, they are far from taking any resources of any real significance.
You say when you can't reach the forums, you can still hit the server. I'll see what I can do about monitoring MySQL or something, but the problems seem to be isolated to only a few individuals, so we've come a LONG way from the old server.

So it could just still be the DNS getting itself around?Weirdan wrote:It seems we are experiencing dns issues: when I was unable to reach the devnet from Ukraine directly, I was able to use it through US-based proxy server.

OpenDNS for the win! =)
no problems today
No problems today. If it happens again I will ping the site to see what address I get.

When I punch in http://www.devnetwork.net I usually get no response however if I type http://forums.devnetwork.net that seems to do the trick.

The DNS setup for devnetwork.net domain looks really, really bad - http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/dnsreport ... etwork.net
I can't reach this forum due to DNS issues almost 80% of the time (it was unreachable yesterday).
