Problems accessing the forum on www.cyprus44.com

www.cyprus44.com, access problems solved!
|
|
|
|
|
Recently, readers with eXtend internet connections, have been experiencing intermittent problems accessing www.cyprus44.com, a web site that includes a popular forum where people can obtain (up-to-the-minute) information on all matters North Cyprus. On occasions, the forum gets quite lively when different members with opposing views, lock horns and battle out their differences 'on-line' for all to see.
|
|
|
|
|
The intermittent access problems that eXtend users are experiencing, started when 'Izzet' (the owner of the forum) changed his domain hosting company, from a company based in Germany to another based in the UK. A coincidence or, the source of the problem?
|
|
|
|
|
Izzet has posted on the forum and informed all members that he has notified eXtend of the problem that some of his users are experiencing, but that they, (eXtend) are unable to solve the problem. Apparently, the new hosting company in the UK (fasthosts.co.uk) is 'home to more websites than any other provider' and none of them can be accessed from eXtend. This seems to narrow the source of the problem down to 'two' providers eXtend or, fasthosts, but I have also discovered that users in the UK (on BT internet connections) are also experiencing exactly the same problem, this seems to narrow the source of the problem down to fasthosts.co.uk
|
|
|
|
|
eXtend users are not experiencing any problems accessing any other sites, other than those hosted at fasthosts.co.uk and users with other internet service providers (except BT) are not experiencing any problems accessing the cyprus44.com forum.
|
|
|
|
|
This problem has led to a breakdown in the relationship between Izzet and eXtend and Izzet has now urged people to change their 'ISP' so that they can access his website. Seems a bit drastic to me!
|
|
|
|
|
In true cyprus44 fashion, the personalities involved in this dispute have 'locked horns' and as usual, whilst the problem persisits, it is the users and the advertisers on the website, who are suffering.
|
|
|
|
|
So, come on Izzet, eXtend and fashosts, get your act together and between you, get this problem sorted! Put aside your differences and work together to solve the problem!
|
|
|
|
|
Here is the tictoptip (temporary solution) for eXtend users until the personalities involved 'get their heads together.'
|
|
|
|
|
Users accessing the website from the UK do not seem to be experiencing a problem (unless you are with BT), so a quick and easy solution for users is to use a proxy server (to make it look as though you are accessing the website from the UK.)

|
|
|

Everything works OK except windows messenger tells me I have the wrong proxy and password?
|

There are settings in Messenger where you can configure the proxy address, username and password:-
Open Messenger- Click Tools - Click Options - Click Connection - Tick HTTP proxy and enter the settings from the email that I sent to you.

We are very satisfied with the new phone system, it has great clarity and the volume at both ends is very good.
|
|
We have phoned both UK and USA and the reception on both was very good.
|
All in all, it is FAR BETTER than skype and x-lite and also, more convenient with being able to have phones in various parts of the house.

No complaints whatsoever with the telephone system. Seems to be working exactly how we would wish it to.

We are very happy with the new phone system, as it is very clear with no delay. Since you fitted it we have had quite a few calls from friends and family in England and all calls have been really clear, as though you were talking to them across the room.

The telephone is fantastic, after struggling with Skype and paying silly prices for the mobile phone for a year we are more than happy to recommend the system.
|
The reception is as good as a land line and we do not have to leave the computer on. Having the extension phone in the kitchen means we can hear the phone anywhere in the house, great!
