ASF Site Performance

Just making a note that my CPU level has been sitting at + 95 while at ASF. Other sites have low CPU so it is only happening to me here and recently. :)
 
Also noticed some wireless network access points are giving "302" to 'many redirects' errors. Happened just recently as well.
 
My apologies to anyone who has been experiencing any unusual slowness while using ASF over the last few days. There were some changes made that have now been rolled back and hopefully things should be back to normal now. :)

I fixed my end good. Now at less than 10 CPU and at 00 on idle.
 
hey Joe

the IB banner on the home page is over the top of the drop-down menus, so for instance attempting to do a search with the search drop-down menu by typing in a search term will simply take me to IB land

Whoops! :eek: Sorry about that. All fixed now! :)
 
Joe, used to be able to do an advance search on a username and could retrieve the threads wherein that user contributed posts. Now, the search only retrieves the threads that user started or originated. Has that search function been removed or is it me?
thanks. newanimal

I've just changed the Advanced Search default from "Search Multiple Content Types" to "Search Single Content Type".

Give it another shot now and let me know how you go.

Hi Joe, I haven't been able to log on to ASF at all today. I emailed another ASF member and found out that it was all working.

I remembered some time ago when you made changes to ASF and various ISPs didn't work for quite some time. Bigpond cable was one of them and I am wondering if that is the problem again.

At the time of writing this post, I am disconnected from cable and plugged in my backup internet stick with a different provider and got straight to ASF this time.

Do you know what's going on? If Bigpond cable is the problem, there may be others that are experiencing the same difficulty in accessing your site.

I will try again with cable and see if it still tells me that the server is unavailable. Will let you know how it goes...:)

Thanks gg...:)

Definitely bigpond cable. I just disconnected the internet stick and re-connected bigpond cable and ASF server couldn't be found. Reversed it all back to the stick and ASF loads perfectly.

Will be interesting to see if Joe can find a solution...:)

Many thanks for letting me know about this. I have been contacted via email by another ASF member who has been experiencing the same problem. I assumed it was some kind of isolated issue by now it appears to be more widespread.

At this stage it would appear that Bigpond Cable are having some kind of issue with accessing certain websites. There could be an outage that is only affecting particular sites, ASF being one of them. I am hoping that whatever the problem is will be fixed by morning. However, if it isn't could you please let me know by posting in this thread tomorrow and I will contact Bigpond myself and see if they are aware of the problem.
 
BIGPOND IS BLOCKING www.aussiestockforums.com FOR REASONS UNKNOWN

My provider is Bigpond (not cable) and I have not been able to access ASF for the past 24 hours
-- I am at my daughter's now using Optus

Joe, advised:

It seems that Bigpond Cable users have been unable to access ASF all day and I'm unsure as to the reason why.

Hopefully it will be sorted out soon.

Regards,
Joe

I'm the same, cant access at home, but can at work.

To fix the problem at home i've been using a free proxy service. hidemyass.com it solved the problem for me.
 
Re: BIGPOND IS BLOCKING www.aussiestockforums.com FOR REASONS UNKNOWN

I have sent Bigpond an email but am not sure when they will get back to me.

Can all of those Bigpond customers reading this post please contact Bigpond technical support themselves and let them know that you cannot access ASF.

Hopefully the more people that do this the faster the problem will be rectified.

If you find out why ASF is being blocked please post the explanation you were given in this thread. I find it hard to believe that it is just ASF.

Thanks!
