The server is taking too long to respond.

I've been trying to sponsor a friend's missus since Thursday but keep getting a page not found error from the PCs on my main network. However the site loads fine from my 3G iPhone.

If anyone wants to check the link is below, why would this work from one device but not another? I've tried every day for four days and have rebooted computers, servers and routers so doesn't seem to be a temporary DNS issue.

The main url seems to be some kind of meta redirect. The subdomain may be as well but could be an htaccess redirect.

The main url holds for a rew seconds. Both links are working ok for me. They may have fixed any transient issues.

works fine and loads quickly for me. Try clearing your DNS cache:

Start
Run
CMD

From the command box type:

Code:
ipconfig /flushdns
exit

I believe the DNS can also be cached by your ISP's servers, so that can be the reason why clearing your local DNS cache does not make a difference.

The site loads fine for me.

Cheers everyone, still not working for me even after flushdns so I guess I'll throw it at my ISP's support team to see what they have to say.

Works fine here. I'd second the DNS issue.

Try to use a proxy (like anonymizer) to check.

P.S. Some routers also have active DNS cache.
