Can't reach Microcenter.com for last two days.

[VirtualLarry]

isup.me says that it's up... but www.microcenter.com is giving me timeouts, server not responding, in Waterfox 28.0. Fresh install of Windows 7 HP 64-bit. NV GT 430 video, 8GB DDR3, 2TB Seagate hybrid drive, G630 CPU.

My ISP is Verizon FIOS, I'm in the northeast.

do an nslookup on microcenter.com to see if you are resolving the name correctly.

If you don't, try to do an nslookup microcenter.com 8.8.8.8 to see if your DNS is not working right.

If you get an IP return, then do a traceroute to microcenter.com to see if it times out at all.

do you think that this might be an MTU issue?

Edit: I connected wirelessly direct to my FIOS router, bypassing my secondary router and my IPv6 tunnel (he.net), and still the same, server timeout.

Yet, it appears that DNS is resolving.

Maybe my IP address on Verizon is falling under one of the server's outdated bogon filters. I've heard of that happening, as VZ usurps the last of the IPv4 address blocks.

I just did a test myself and I can't access it. I'd def say there's some sort of issue with their site.

 

[Phynaz]

I can get there fine.

 

[RLGL]

Can't get there from here, I am in Minnesota

I too, am unable to reach microcenter on any of my computers but I can access the website from my android phone. I'm not a tech but my first thought was some kind of DNS virus but it's good 2 know I'm not alone. Now how do we fix? I'm running Windows 7 64bit -Chrome and IE. I've already tried these fixes to no avail: power cycled and updated router firmware, flushed DNS, reset browser settings, deleted temp files, checked firewall and anti virus.

Same here... I am guessing it is a route issue...

Doesn't work on Comcast in North East and can't get through using my cell phone either using cell service with ATT.

It works fine here. (Comcast in Utah)

now it works on my comcast, last time it sat there for maybe 2 minutes and timed out but loaded right up this time.

Hmm, now it's loading up for me too. Thanks for the info.
