Routers and modem reset. Desktop reset. Cache cleared. History cleared. Cookies cleared. Ad blockers off. Firewall checked for permission issues. Router checked for any accidental errors, extensions disabled, diagnostics check ran, all of the other suggestions tried... This is the only site I can't access via wifi in the house. I'm at a loss. Posting via mobile, when I go on to wifi things time out. It's gotta be some gremlin on my end, I just don't know what else to do. Even cleared things out via c prompt steps. I'm stumped.
Yea - I am to. So, attached your phone to the wifi and see if it has issues.. if it does, turn wifi off on your phone and try on call (which I assume you are on 4g per previous post now)
Yeah, as I stated earlier, on wifi I have issues, pc and mobile. On mobile over 4g I'm fine, it's been how I've been posting. On pc, over wifi, I can get to every other site on the www. On mobile I can access MA via 4g. When on home wifi on mobile, I get the same messages I get if I were on my pc.
Ok - sorry, when you said wifi.. I assumed you were connecting the PC that way.. so essentially it's something on the network. Not the site. That also means it's in the router... phone and PC are seeing the same problem on the same network. Take the phone off that network and it works fine. When you rebooted the router, how long did you have it powered off? Power it off and leave it off for a few minutes then power on. Frankly - this is a bit strange. Feels like the router cached something for some reason. What provider/cable company are you using?
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand working! Thanks for all the help, I'm sorry for any frustration. I unplugged the routers and went to bed, got everything hooked back up and seems to be doing fine now. Grrrrrr. as I was editing to add that I use COx and haven't had the set luck with them, I went to resubmit post and got the message again. Fingers crossed that this posts.
Ugh, now it's not working again... Went to submit a reply in my pm, like I did yesterday, went to a 403 forbidden screen and now not working, posting from cell phone.
OK - so I search for COX and 403 and found there are some threads/post on it. Nothing definitive, but appears there is an issue. I’ve also tested PM etc yesterday and today and that is working fine. This has something to do with the router/network. A few questions/assumptions: 1) You have been using site/PM fine until yesterday. 2) If you reset your router, login from PC and post to site are there any issues? (I.e. is it just PM)
I thought that after the overnight reset of routers, hooking everything up, first stop was MA, things went fine as I posted, went to reply to my PM and the issues started all over again. I've cleared router cache, done dns clear trough c prompt, done clearing of cookies and cache through Google Chrome, have checked logs, have disabled firewall, basically anything I can think of to remedy the situation and no dice. To date, MA is the only site that has caused a problem, not saying MA is the problem, I just wish I knew what the problem is when wanting to access it. Now it just pisses me off and I want to figure it out. I'm posting from my local, literary on my same block, via their wifi so I know it's something strange from my end. Just wish I knew what it was.
Yea agreed - very odd. I’m going to look at something.. I wonder if when you PM it bounces you between HTTP and HTTPs..
So I just tested PM (sent test to you).. it doesn’t flip between http, https.. stays on that. I was thinking maybe the router thinks its a session highjack.. will do some more research..
Now getting this message when replying to PM, but, I am somehow on from my desktop. The webpage at https://www.motoringalliance.com/forums/private.php?do=insertpm&pmid=218811 might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address. ERR_SPDY_PROTOCOL_ERROR
Was able to get onto the site briefly via email saying I had a PM, replied to pm and got the timeout message, then the 403 message. Not sure if Sully got my message. I'll try the steps in the link you provided, Nathan.
