Is it just me or is the site running very slowly tonight? I couldn't get on at all this morning but tonight it has taken me more than 20 mins just to post this!

Kev

Going to give this a go again but just for fun.

I had the same and couldnt get on net model either last night to reply to everyone on the forums.

On a different note, thankyou for your response Kev, and yes I'd love to work with you! I drive so chippenham is not far from me at all.

Best wishes,

Helen x

Generally, compared to lots of other sites of all types, this one does run very slowly. Can be very frustrating at times, having to wait for pages to load. I just assume we have to live with it.

Matt are you with BT ?

I used to have quite a bit of problems with this site being very slow - less so in recent months. If you are with BT restarting your router and clearing your cache may get you back to normal speed. Not too sure why - whether it is a proxy thing or something, I know this usually works for me when I find some pages being very painful. There were a couple of threads about it around a year ago


Even if you are not with BT it might be worth a try

Yes, I am with BT. Just upgraded home broadband to business to get faster connection as it has been absolutely dreadful. We restart the router regularly and I clear cache (mac) weekly. Since upgrading, other sites are a fair bit beter but NM is still painfully slow at times.
My office broadband is slightly better because it is much closer to the exchange.

Just had it again briefly, my work uses a dual WAN setup with load balancing (1xBT, 1xNTL) and at home I use Pipex (had problems last night)



I has a big announcement!

Yesterday morning was due to the servers being physically relocated - Escape did post a thread about this.

Maybe last night's issues were a follow on to this?
