I can't seem to get to some Geoshities sites via Paradise, fired up Orcon and no
problems. Anyone else?

Geoshities is slow, but not unreachable on my paradise.

Hmmm. I had someone posted images in my forums and I couldn't see them (red
X). Then he e-mailed me the URL and I can't see then either by entering the
URL directly. Guess what? Paradise + Geocities here...

What evidence do you have to support this unsubstantied hogwash?

And what was the error message returned?

Geocities is a flaky server to have stuff hosted on, they have hourly
traffic limits and other daft things

Well they sure as hell aren't what they used to be. They rarely, if ever, update
their homepage when something goes down. In the 'good old days', there'd be an
email from them as soon as the problem had been resolved.

Sounds like some of us can connect, but I definitely can't. I'm on
Paradise in Christchurch.

Bye,

That might be appropriate for a small niche high priced ISP, not a big
one with a lot of hardware to look after.

You can't expect to pick up the phone and talk to a techo directly
because they all have a lot more equipment to run on a big network.

If you don't like that service model then change to the small niche
higher priced ISP, it is your choice.
