Today I tried to go to our website, and my browser couldn´t resolve the hostname.
I investigated a bit deeper, and found that neither the dns at my work, nor my home isp, nor google public dns can resolve it.
I had to find the ip address through google and come here that way, what is going on?
For windows users, try nslookup electro-tech-online.com 8.8.8.8
It tells me no records were found.
 
I got here the same way.

The DNS won't resolve.

Kinda quiet:

**broken link removed**
  1. **broken link removed**,
  2. **broken link removed**,
  3. **broken link removed**,
  4. **broken link removed**
Total: 101 (members: 4, guests: 38, robots: 59)
 
Had that before today. Now it seems solved.

Member me too here. :happy: :hilarious: :joyful: :p

Nice emoticons, now that I think of it...

I tried to access ETO yesterday....no luck. Glad all is working again :)

Thanks EM :cool:
 
fvm: If windows, try doing this: ipconfig /flushdns from the cmd prompt as adminsitrator

Then try

Do an nslookup www.electro-tech-online.com and try typing one of those addresses returned.

You might also try re-booting your router which can cache the DNS info.
Good idea. I will try that soon.
I have one computer that, if it ever once misses electro-tech-online.com, will not find it anymore. It either goes to "page not found" or to a search engine that has "electro-tech" for sale.
I erase history, clear cash, reboot, shout, jump up and down, and in 4 to 12 hours it starts working.
 
What I hate, is that one mispelling can ruin your day. There isn't a way to easily remove one "auto-complete" So, a **broken link removed**.cm" gets selected because if a simple typo.
 
For windows 7, DNS cache is persistent, so:

ipconfig /flushdns

will clear DNS cache.

re-booting the computer will not clear DNS cache.
