The connection has timed out

The server at www.awgb.co.uk is taking too long to respond.

    The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
  
  If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
 
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to   access the Web.

What a hassle it has become.........

PS ... I get quicker response with WOW and they're in the States ...

Keep the feedback coming so I can report it back to our ISP. They tell me they are working on the problem.

I could not load it using Chrome - worse, I saved the window as requested but could not post the picture.

How goes the fix?

Hi Paul
I seem to have no problem.
So wonder why it appears to be affecting some but not all!
Does it relate to the whole forum or a single subject?

The problem appears to be affecting both the website and the forum. When you click a link or load a new page, nothing happens and eventually your web browser will produce an error message, generally saying it has timed out or the connection was reset. The problem appears to be intermittent so you may not see any problem if you are fortunate enough to time your visit when everything is working normally.

If you do experience the problem, it would be helpful to know exactly when it happened.

I have had the same problems, same screen as Woodndesign. It is erratic in that it works fine sometimes but not others.

Needs a squirt of wd40 somewhere I think!

Struggled to get on at 7.50 pm.
 It all seems to have slowed down a bit too.
