It wasn't working for me a minute ago (got a "Bad Gateway message) but it's working now.

Are you using http://www.viva-media.com/

Those of you who are having problems, what do you see when you try to visit www.viva-media.com ?

Do you see nothing but a white screen that never loads?
Or do you get a 404 error?
Or a "not found on this server" error?

Have you tried a different web browser (like Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Opera) to see if the problem is only with Chrome?

I just clicked on Jenny's link and immediately went to the website. I have never been there, so there is nothing in my Firefox browser history. I immediately went to the VivaMedia site in IE and Chrome too. Have you tried clearing your browser cache/history?

The problem might have nothing to do with your computer. There could also be a routing problem between your server and the Viva Media server. If the problem persists, try contacting your ISP. If one of your ISP's routers is down somewhere, they could make sure that particular router doesn't have internet traffic forwarded to it until it's repaired.

This afternoon there was a post in this thread that suggested that the problem might be caused by DNS server problems. It even had a link to a site that explained how you could change your DNS server settings. That post has disappeared with no explanation. Was that bogus information? Could somebody please explain?

Since the symptom turned out to be a white screen that never loads, the problem is not a DNS problem. A DNS problem would give a "server not found" message. I removed my post so as not to confuse people or have them try something that wouldn't work for this problem.

If you have no software firewall that could be blocking the site, I think the problem may be with your Internet Service Provider's routing. You'll have to call them up if the problem is on their end.

The problem could also be on Viva-Media's side if they blocked a range of addresses for security reasons (such as someone launching a denial of service attack using that range of addresses).

So you could also try contacting Viva-Media about the problem, though I don't know how quickly they respond to emails. You can try emailing using the email address in the profile of the Viva-Media representative who posted earlier in this thread.

To test if your IP address is mistakenly being blocked, you could try accessing the Viva-Media website with the TOR browser, which changes your IP number. But TOR browser is VERY VERY slow so even if you do get through, it's not something you'd want to continue to use. https://www.torproject.org/

Which is why it's probably Viva-Media's problem.
But they should be concerned if their customers can't get to their website.

Just out of curiosity, can you get to ***Google's cache of the viva-media.com website***?

That would be quicker to check than installing TOR.

If you check the ***link for Google's cache of the viva-media.com website***, it should give you the same answer as trying to access it using TOR browser. As long as you can access Google, you should be able to access Google's cache of the Viva Media webpage -- even if you're blocked from accessing www.viva-media.com

I wonder if Marian and Uncle Reg are able to get ***the Google cache page for Viva Media*** to load.
