Internet down?

Can't connect to FR via my ISP. But when I access via dreamhost, I have no problem. This post is via dreamhost.

My standard internet is fine. Likely that you have a local problem.

[Rocky]

Problem with your ISP.

[FreedomPoster]

I second my neighbor Laz. Working fine on AT&T fiber here.

[Repeal The 17th]

Yes the internet is down.
You are unable to connect to Free Republic.

[Truth29]

intermittently down with Cox internet in Virginia.

[Carpe Cerevisi]

Then perhaps your ISP is wonky.

[Pollard]

Wow, the whole internet?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Are you logged in? 🤡

[plain talk]

Mine still working fine. Reboot and try again?

[newfreep]

Damn you, Owl Gore!!!

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

Due to the Chauvin verdict I am rioting and burning the internet down.
You need to board up your computer to avoid further damage.

[TaMoDee]

Working great north of the Cajon Pass.

I know this will sound strange but I am logged in twice. Once on my browser where I can't surf to FR or just about anywhere else e.g. bonginoreport.com

I am logged in a second time (to write this comment) on dreamhost where I use lynx as a poor man's VPN. I ssh to dreamhost and that creates secure connection no matter where I am (e.g. coffee shop)

You’re probably using 1999 internet.

You need to upgrade to 2021 internet.

I can sell you an upgrade for a small fee.

Yes, the entire internet is down. I am replying from the past.

Your ISP is having problems. I can access by my ISP, my 5G phone, and my neighbor’s wifi.

[palmer]

But my ISP lets me ssh to dreamhost where I am posting this using lynx. I can’t do anthing on ports 443 or 80. I try to search with duckduckgo or google and can’t connect to those. Might be my mac. Will try a reboot.

-——well that’s not helpful. I want someone from the future.

[palmer]

Ok, that seemed to work. Why would my mac allow only some connections, and none on 443 or 80, until I reboot? Didn't allow any connections with my backup ISP (AT&T).
