Anyone else? I was on the board reading a thread and went to post-when i clicked on to reply-it brought me to the page that says the board was down for maintenance, bla, bla, bla. it took me about 5 minutes more to get back in.

Is it happening to anybody else?
 
I am able to get on through my slow AOL connection, however I can't even log on with comcast. I get that maintenance message. I guess they are still working on it? AOL is soooo slow!
 
The problem with Comcast is that they did not update their Domain Name Server (DNS) settings yet, I updated them yesterday and it seems to take longer for them to propagate the settings across their network. Hang in there, it will be resolved on their end eventually.

I have dozens of Comcast subscribers complaining about not being able to log on yet, not much I can do unfortunately.
 
Here's something you can try to do if you're on a Windows computer:

Go to Start Menu, go to Run... and type in 'cmd'. At the prompt, type 'ipconfig /flushdns' and press Enter.

It should now say:

Windows IP Configuration

Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.

Then, restart the computer. Try accessing tPF with your Internet Explorer or browser of choice.

thanks-that seems to have helped me Vlad!
 
Vlad, I need your help. I follow what you said "type in 'cmd'. At the prompt, type 'ipconfig /flushdns' and press Enter." and I restart my computer.
However, i still get the msg saying tpf is maintain..........

:sad: I tried couple times and i can finally log on again
 
I have internet through Comcast, too, and I couldn't log on until this morning. I was shocked to find out that the forum was back up at around 4pm eastern time yesterday! But everything has been working fine for me since then.
 
*Sigh*

Ok I officially hate comcast. It only lets me stay on here 5 min at a time. Then it sends me back to the under construction page. This sucks. I'm goin try what you suggested Vlad.
