I have experienced connection/response time problems since about 17:00 hours today. Often my connection attempts were timed out (The connection has timed out - The server at www.dvforums.com is taking too long to respond.). If I was able to connect, responses were very poor, sometimes only returning part of a thread, has anyone else had anything similar?

I forgot to say that I can connect to other servers with no delay.

Re: Sunday 4 February 2013 very slow response times
Just had a timeout a few minutes ago, where I couldn't log on to the forum all, up until then I hadn't had an issue
Maybe Martin who hosts the forum has just reset the server?
Is it still a problem now Tony?
Also have you tried a different browser like Chrome or Firefox as no one else has a problem so far?
If it's a Tennis Elbow issue, it's overdue for a new game as we are over 100 posts

Thanks John, I use Firefox - no, it's not a Tennis,Elbow issue. The problem was with general forum access; as I posted above, I can access BT Yahoo and other forums almost instantly. I take the prod about Tennis,Elbow, and I will restart it in the near future. Tony C.

Thanks Tony
It's full speed here and tiscali crawls at night hereabouts
Can you try a speed test, Iplayer has a good one, maybe this will highlight any local issues?
Thanks

Re: Sunday 4 February 2013 very slow response times
Any improvement Tony?
Martin found a server bug and fixed it
I still have a slight lag after clicking a thread, the longer threads open up very quickly now
Thanks

John, the system seems much better this morning. Thanks. (is the system clock correct?, and I don't appear as 'online')

Re: Sunday 4 February 2013 very slow response times
Thanks Tony
I've given the nod to Martin about the users online issue
System clock? This reply was posted at 09:30 am so the clock is 16 minutes slow approximately

Re: Sunday 4 February 2013 very slow response times
Test from me - forum's real time clock seems accurate to me too.
