JR Does Not Exist?

[jkinzel]

I have not been able to get on JR for most of today,7/18, using either IE or Fire Fox.
Below are the results of a nslookup, JR does no exist.
It appears that I'm the only one with this issue or there would be other post.
Any thoughts as to what might be the issue?

Sorry to say, but it is all on you bud, I made two purchases no today. No problem here. Reboot all your equipment, try again.

looks like your home router's DNS is not working or unable to contact the ISP's DNS.

Re-boot your router

That IP address is the home router address, it is not connected to the internet.

Before posting this thread I rebooted the computer, but it did not help. I shut everything down last night and started it up this morning and I was able to get on JR. I didn't think of the router because I was able to go all over the net with no problem, just not JointedRail. Very strange.

Thanks for the help.

I thought this post was going to be some type of new religion when I opened it. Glad you got it working.

I imagine for some, JR is a religion. I keep praying for Northern Pacific GP9's, U33C's, Alco's, etc.

Anytime you run into problem with a site and others work, keep in mind to restart the modems and routers and the computer. The stuff doesn't always update or recover right away as you have witnessed.

I've been having the same issue - JR, USLW, and Crossties websites haven't been loading for a few days now. I assumed their servers were down. I've restarted my router & my computer both. I figure it'll start working again eventually - there's bound to be glitches with the trons these days.

I just loaded the website up fine. They must've fixed whatever problem there was.

I didnt fix anything if there was a problem I didnt get notified about it (let's face it - when stuff gets broken by a certain someone, I am the one who has to fix it).

Thanks for the helper site, that will make people have a way to verify their situations.

I just checked again and all of the JR-associated sites are working for me now. Like I figured, must have just been some weird trons. That website link you posted is pretty dang cool - I've bookmarked that one for later use! I travel a lot for work, so it can be tough to tell if something is or isn't working, or if I just have crappy internet (can't find US-speed elsewhere :-/)
