I think the internets might be broken. (Can't get mail or certain websites.)
Edited on Sat Apr-05-08 06:29 AM by bbernardini
Had some trouble connecting this morning. Restarted the modem and router, then the computer. Can't get my e-mail. Some websites work perfectly, some don't load at all. Anybody else having similar problems? Obviously, I can get this site to load. Here's a little list of what works so far and what doesn't:

Works:
www.dailylocal.com
www.binsearch.info
www.democraticunderground.com

Doesn't work:
www.topix.com
www.dslreports.com
en.wikipedia.org
mailcenter.comcast.net (www.comcast.net will work, but fails after I try to log in.)

1. UPDATE
***UPDATE***

It's also out at my father's house (10 miles away), and at my aunt's house in Wilmington, DE (22 miles away). Comcast seems to be aware of the problem.

2. UPDATE #2:
I've heard that it's out all the way out in State College, PA as well.

3. Having similar problems here also...
Keeps timing out when I try to get e-mail (Comcast) and can't log in to my account on their website. Many sites are fine; though LiveJournal sites seem to be loading slowly. Was fine last night. I was having intermittent connectivity problems a lot last fall, but it's been fairly reliable since then. Hope this isn't the start of another round of trouble.

(oh, I'm in Philly...think I need to update my profile)

4. Same problems with Comcast in Oregon.
And the pages that do load are doing so very slowly.
