sssurfer Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 I wanted to check Enzo's post on strap distressing at RWI, but it is at least two days that I seem unable to reach RWI. I read that with some members it is because of their ISPs, but I think this is not my case as I was able to get in until some weeks ago. Any suggestions? Any problems to you in opening RWI?

cwai02 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 no problemhere, and I missed the PT's free raffle.
mossanti Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 Im on IT right now..no problems...maybe something is wrong with your internet ...
dadog13 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 just been over at rwi...checked the PMs and got good news...Sichuan sent me the 217...it shall be on my wrist in a few days!
sssurfer Posted June 3, 2006 Author Report Posted June 3, 2006 @Ken: thanks, I had the link, but it did not work. @All: thank you, I see it must be my ISP. I'll try to figure out something, but I don't even know how to use a proxy...
sevomd Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 No probs here. What machine and browser are you using. Sometimes if using a mac you have to delete the cache to make safari work again. Or maybe try using another browser. Eddy
FasTTaP Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 same for me : impossible to reach... do you think my ISP is blocking it ?
Pugwash Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 same for me : impossible to reach... do you think my ISP is blocking it ? You're on Free.fr at a guess. No-one on Free.fr can get to it. I use a proxy (and please don't PM me for the details, it's my office VPN)
Pugwash Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 RWI runs on a host that for no real apparent reason has routing issues with some ISPs. I've been through it with their technical support and they find nothing wrong. They can access it from anywhere, and therefore assume I'm being silly. What you need to do is contact their hosting provider and complain. I'll go through my mails and post contact details soon.
Pugwash Posted June 3, 2006 Report Posted June 3, 2006 The contact for their host is support@1and1.com so send them an email complaining you can't connect to 217.160.246.193 They may require a traceroute. Here's how to do it in Windows: Run CMD (Windows-R, type "CMD", hit enter) and type TRACERT 217.160.246.193 This will give you the info they need. On OSX, in Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal) type traceroute 217.160.246.193 On Linux/BSD/Solaris, if you don't know how to do a traceroute, get a Mac. It's obviously too hard for you.
sssurfer Posted June 3, 2006 Author Report Posted June 3, 2006 Thanks, Pugwash, I'll do as you suggest. @sevomd: I am using Firefox and IE, and they are both unable to connect to RWI on my PC. And, as I already said, this is a recent problem. I had no problem until some time ago.
sssurfer Posted June 6, 2006 Author Report Posted June 6, 2006 I contacted the host. Their reply: "I am sorry but in order for us to further check this IP, we need to have the Customer ID for validation purposes. Please contact the owner of the forum so that we can make necessary actions. I apologize but I hope you understand, it is company policy." Does anyone know how can I contact RWI's admin? Thanks, sss

I had no problem until some time ago. Same problem here!!! No problem acessing RWI at the office but here at my house unfortunatelly Is not possible. And I really miss Enzo's instructive posts. M.
HighDef Posted June 25, 2006 Report Posted June 25, 2006 (edited) Same problem here!!! No problem acessing RWI at the office but here at my house unfortunatelly Is not possible. And I really miss Enzo's instructive posts. M. Wow! I do not have any problems accessing RWI from work or home, but I have a problem accessing TRC from home, but not from work. If I try TRC frm homw, it take me to the old site that nobody use anymore and the latest post was like a month ago. I do not know what is causing this. Any hint?? Edited June 25, 2006 by HighDef
Chronus Posted June 25, 2006 Report Posted June 25, 2006 Never been able to get onto RWI when I wanted to register. I guess I'll just stick with this and the occasional browse on TRC and RWG1.
erd04056 Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 I can log in there only in spurts. Example, I was logged in an hour ago, now I can't log in at all. I can get to the site, but I just get the log in site over and over. Its been this way for a few days.
KB Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 This is RWG we have no control over the availability to access RWI, we do however have a direct link to their site in our links page, this thread is closed. Ken
