comcast is having problems connecting

This is a continuing problem with trying to log on lately. It gives me a DNS message and says to put in the ip address, is it them or are we being hacked?
I have had this for a month but the last few days it's worse

I saw the same thing when coming from a Qwest DSL connection.

I think it was a DDOS attack.

Me too and I saw some black choppers overhead.

The CIA is putting together dossiers on each of us. Time to go buy some more Reynold's Wrap.

Just got a DNS notification- 501. Something's up.

I can only get through to the main forum by using past links, I get a 503 otherwise

The reason I said a DDOS attack is because that is the message I got earlier when I tried to visit the forum. It was I'm guessing from the hosting provider saying the server had detected a DDOS attack.

No, it's not an attack of any kind.

With the current problems, the board occasionally gets into a bad state and causes some SSL issues.

The DNS rebind attack warning is due to the way your router/firewall/browser is interpreting the symptoms. It's a false positive.

Clear your cache (or even just close and reopen your browser) and you should be fine.

^ +1. It worked for me.

Thanks.
