I know this sounds stupid being posted here but i cant get on BCF!

At my house in Northants i cant connect to BCF Firefox just tells me the server cannot be found...

Im currently in Reading at the missus's house and i can get on fine...

What could be causing said problem? I can connect to every other website (however i had trouble getting on YouTube for a few days)

My ISP problem?

BCF had recognised you're in an acceptable location when in Reading, as it's supposed spiritual home! Razz

Erm, when home try opening a command prompt:
Start > Run
Type:
cmd
(press 'ok')
Type:
tracert bikechatforums.com

Won't solve your problem, but if you can get the details back onto here somehow, it should help.

Im using a Mac G...

It just says that it cannot connect to it.

Also wont connect on the PC thats on the same router.

Only problem is once im home tomorrow i wont be able to tell you whats wrong.

Dont really know what i was expecting tbh it wont work on any other browser either though.

BTW G i think the oil was coming from the breather pipe think i may have overfilled it Embarassed

I presume your using NTL at home?

If so i think there was a thread on here a while ago about using a different NTL proxy fixing access to this site...

Mr. Green Hope that helps...

Sounds like a case of "pebcak/picnic" to me.
