Adding that entry to the Hosts file is the simplest way to fix this DNS problem. Thanks for reminding me of it!

This trick will work for Mac or Linux too. Just search your computer to locate the Hosts file and then edit that file to include “209.157.64.200 www.freerepublic.com”. I cleared my browser cache, cookies and history, then closed and restarted the browser. No problem!

Thanks,

I did that.. on my laptop, and it now works. Not sure what I will do on my Ipad and phone?

While on-line with TWC, they had me do a “tracert” from the command prompt. It showed that the problem is not happening in the TWC system. The last 6 “hops” are the ones in their system...

The hang up is coming in Hop 13.... who knew there were so many transfers? Every time it gets there, it times out.

They said I should contact the site to let them know.

Heh! /etc/hosts in Ubuntu. Had fun trying to remember my vi commands! :-)
