    Really odd and I think Martin may be right. Tried rebooting your router?

    Not the Only Volvo site having problems,

    "Volvo Forums is temporarily closed for server repair work

    Sorry but the Volvo Forums is closed. Something went wrong with the database early hours this morning - 28 December. We need to find out what, and then try to fix it or use an earlier backup copy.

    Update 0945 GMT 29 December: Things are looking better. The database appears to be intact and repairs have gone well. The host has found an issue with the server that may be linked to this and the other recent short outages. Some short term work has been done to rectify that but a proper repair will be done tonight. For that reason we are going to wait for that to be successfully completed before reopening the forum.

    I am sure many of you may now be wilting because you are not getting your 'daily fix', we apologise but just try to hang on a little longer.

    Bob Isaac. Volvo Owners Club"

    So hope it's not catching, or worse someone on Both sites spreading something nasty.

    Joe.

    LOL typical, be sure to reboot your pc and router and clear your browser cache. I thought those on talk talk stopped having issues now?

    Yeah the issue clearly is with the default Talk Talk DNS server(s)

    Anyone on Talktalk want to report the issue to technical support?

    Hi Rick,

    Do you have any example times? Also what type of device, browser and ISP are you using?

    Anyone else have issues yesterday?

    Another Talk Talk issue :-(

    Paul changed his DNS settings and hasn't had an issue since. It might be worth trying that?

    I wrote this the other day. I'll PM you my phone number incase all goes pear shaped but I'm alittle drunk at the moment so if you need help maybe try tomorrow ;-)

    Changing DNS Settings (Windows XP):

    1. Click Start > Control Panel > Network Connections and select your local network.
    2. On the General tab click Properties > Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    3. Click Properties

    The Internet Protocol window will appear. Click Use the following DNS server addresses and enter the DNS server(s) you want to use.

    OpenDNS:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220

    Googles DNS:
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
