Has anyone tried to order from ExpressPCB lately? They seem to have disappeared from the radar.

Try this, (bypassing DNS lookup): http://207.153.228.176/

If that fails, you might want to talk to your ISP. They may have a router misconfigured. I've seen it happen that an address reachable from many points is unreachable from one. The main way to get that result is improper forwarding rules in a router. If that's the case, send them a tracert output. On Win{NT,2K,XP}, that would be: tracert

BTW, the site works fine for me too.

We had TI disappear here for about three months last year. Nobody could understand it. Then it just started working again.

I just tried again...nothing. Won't connect. I can't even get their website to come up, even if I type their URL directly. Everything else on the Internet works fine for me. I tried last Thursday and Friday, then again Monday and today. Beats me.

I tried the IP you gave and it does work, though the URL still doesn't. I guess I'll have to talk to IT. Thanks everyone for the help!

Don Kansas City

doesn't.

Any time you have such problems, use the IP Whois line here:

Hello Don,

I just tried and it works. It could be a problem with the DNS server of your provider. Maybe maintenance or something is down for another reason. We had this a lot in the first year or so of broadband but now it happens only once or twice a month. Only for a few hours, if that.

Sometimes a search for the company in Google followed by a click on the link helps.

Hello Don,

Just one more hint: If your DNS server is indeed down and you absolutely have to get to the site for a quote or something you could try entering their IP address instead of the web address:

207.153.228.176

Hello Don,

IT might not be able to fix that unless you are working for a huge company that has their own DNS server. But they could talk to the ISP.
