Message for Scott - Site issues for UK readers

Thu Sep 21, 2023 7:22 pm

Just to let you know that myself and other UK subscribers to WIX are having problems accessing the forum, getting a message to say the page can't be reached. However using a VPN address in the US I have no problem... this has been going on for a few days; I thought it was something I've done wrong but there are now comments on Key from others with the same issue.

I was having the same issue until I changed my DNS to the google one and then all worked again.

Ah, not just me then - I have had no access via home Wifi for several weeks but fine on the Wetherspoons pub WiFi, or through 4G. Yesterday no access any which way. Working fine on the Wetherspoons WiFi now!

Suggested fix was to change my home IP address which I was a bit uncertain about!

I too did the DNS change and it has worked so far...

I couldn't get on for several days. Kept getting a trouble page explaining site attendance exceeded or something like that. All good since yesterday.

Yep, same for me as well if not going through a VPN.

Switch VPN on and its OK.

I hadn't been able to connect a good couple of weeks ago. I was away for 10 days or so and hadn't seen the Key Aero post until today.
Logged in using Opera's built-in VPN, currently "Europe", and it seems to work.

It is great to be back!

Hello everyone! First of all, I would like to say that I'm extremely happy to be back! :D :D :D Until today, I have been unable to access the site all month, and I was worried that I couldn't access WIX ever again (I would really struggle to live without this site, since it is my main source of warbird news and favourite forum). Luckily, I was able to solve the problem today (it was a DNS error to be exact, and I was able to correct it) and this means I can access WIX again! I hope I haven't missed out on too much.
