I am being timed out about 95% of the time when I try to log in. When I do manage to I often get timed out if I go to any section of these forums. I've tried turning off my firewall, restarting my modem and my computer and other things. NOthing seems to help. I did a traceroute in my Linux terminal and sometimes that seems to time out.

If this keeps happening I might have to change my IP address e.g by getting a VPN. I don't think that it's LIbrivox's fault. I think that it's just the wacky railways lines of internet paths that sometimes have a part of it somewhere that closes off.

Any ideas? As both a reader and a DPL this is driving me nuts.

This is the first time in 24 hours that I've managed to last longer than 2 minutes before being timed out. I've looked at sites for whether LibriVox has been up/down and I agree, LIbriVox doesn't appear to have been down in that time.

It seems to be better now. It was just this site that was timing out for me. Can't explain that. Anyway. :shock:
