Sounds like good news. Any idea how long the site will be down?

Not sure. Hopefully just an hour

[csearle]

You mean I'll have to talk to the locals in the pub for a whole hour?

Well, look at it from their point of view, they will have to listen to you!

Well if you're going to be picky, how about "under going" (undergoing).
Odd that stooz announced the site was back up at 18:35 but for me it was down all of last night but was OK this morning

Explanation coming...

[daveh]

Still down on my computer but fine on my phone. Odd.

[Breelander]

It took until 5:00PM on 11th before the domain change had rippled out to the DNS lookup server 1.1.1.1. Still not working if I use my ISP's DNS (BT).

Still down on my computer but fine on my phone. Odd.

Mine did this too but it was fixed by restarting the computer and logging in again to TLF.

[stooz]

Im using a hack on my hosts file to get in , but without it I still see the old site I am discussing this with support - sorry to everyone - the move was all done in an hour last night.
Its the DNS that has taken forever

[swill453]

So I just changed my network config on Windows 10 to point to the OpenDNS servers 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220, and did an 'ipconfig /flushdns' on the command line, and I'm now accessing the site OK.

Whether it was one or both of those steps which worked, or pure coincidence I don't know.

Previously I could get on to the site on my phone if I used mobile data (Sky), but not via broadband (Virgin).

Hmm, false dawn, stopped working again.
