Things work well on the site. When using the forum runner app it closes a lot of times when clicking on a link. Assume this is a forum runner issue though.

Sunny Central Minnesota here...... The Land of a Ten Thousand Beaches.

Century Link DSL
Most of the time it works just fine.
However, there are those evenings in Feb when everything seems to slow down a bit.

Very Happy here to belong to the IAP. :cool:
Thank you Jeff & Scott :biggrin:

Central Kentucky, USA, set up with commercial rural wireless LAN and minimum broadband but every thing from/to IAP is great, no issues.

+1 on a "Next" pic button like is on Saw-Mill-Creek's V-Bulletin forums.

OK, thanks all for the reports!

I have been monitoring server performance for 3 days trying to determine whether what John T. was experiencing was related to a server problem.

I have run performance monitoring tools from various points around the globe, and watched page render times. Nothing indicates to me that there is a server problem causing any general slowdown. I definitely don't dispute that John and possibly others are experiencing issues, even perhaps just with this site, but they are likely related to routing issues between the individual ISP and our server.

Once again thanks for taking a look at this. It must be a router problem as you say. Anytime after 5:00 i basically can not get on the site. In the morning things are pretty much smooth sailing. As I said it has started to happen about 3 weeks ago now and has continued. never had an issue to this site. Maybe because i have visited more often the past few months I have now noticed it. Maybe it is a weather related problem because of all the cold and nasty weather we have been having. Maybe more people are using the system due to weather and staying indoors more. Well whatever it is I will deal with it and again thanks.

1. North Central Utah (South of Salt Lake),
2. Snappy to a tee
3. There is a slight lag in the evening, 5:00pm to 'bout 7:00pm MDT
4. High speed Broadband

Suggestions: It would be nice to be able to arrow through multiple pics that members post in the forums rather than having to close one out and then open another.

Also, it seems to take a long time to upload pics to be posted within the forum. Of course, that could be user error or just too big of files:redface:

...just my .02¢

Located in the mitten, north of Ohio. Always seems to be fast other than when most sites are acting up from denial of service from either bad guys, hackers, Chinese or the neighborhood kiddies having fun. There have been problems on a couple other forums, mostly denial of service attacks. Could be in his neighbor node, or his IP's server or on a trunk Gives one a head ache thinking about it:clown:

Southern New Jersey, Verizon FIOS fiber connection at 75/75, fast.
After 7:00PM I basically can not get on the site. Started a week or two ago, started loading pages slowly & now freezes after header part of the page appears. In the beginning I could reload page a few time & be okay. Now in the last few days nothing works. Other web sites load fine. . It started around 7:30 last night & still not loading when I went to bed at 12:00

I'm in Milwaukee, WI...Time Warner cable...everything loads just great with no problems! Use a desktop PC and my iPad via a router...no problems either way.
I do agree with Ladycop322 on the pictures...good idea!!

Yup! We must be on the same fiber strand! Exactly the same here. Cannot even enlarge a thumbnail in the evening. In the morning, even now at 1:30, it is so fast, you would think they lubed the fiber cable with some of that stuff you see advertised on TV!:eek:
