Problems connecting with Chrome

Post by fortinbras »

Very recently (i.e. the last two days) I have serious trouble getting to Quatloos using Chrome and have to switch to IE to do it.
Something is causing a serious misconnection with Chrome.

Does it take forever to load or is there an error message? If there's a message, what is it?

I think the site is experiencing pretty serious performance problems for the last two days or so. It's not browser specific, and not specific to a particular network I'm using. I get frequent timeouts and slow or partial page loads.

I've had similar problems using Chrome. Every so often, their I get a "page is not available" notice, or the page only pops up in pieces. Most of the time, however, it comes in clear.

Haven't had any issues with Firefox on my desktop. Have always had issues with Chrome on my phone.

Having SEVERE problems with Chrome. This is at least 7th time today I have tried to get to this page.
Sometimes get "webpage not available" message, sometimes just stays on prior page and does not move/respond. Much of time, after I open, read one message, I cannot open another one unless I completely exit the system and come back in.
Problems basically started occurring this past week.

In chrome, put this in your address bar:

Code: Select all

chrome://net-internals/#dns
Then click the button that says Clear host cache

Let me know if that helps.

I've had no problem with Chrome since I got home from Scout camp yesterday afternoon.

Actually I think there are intermittent but rare problems with Firefox and possibly Internet Explorer but it's nothing worse than a page occasionally failing to load and is fixed by a simple refresh.
