perdu Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 This was interesting, not a500 or a 503 but a forbidden on my PC and my phone. Lasted a few minutes so I thought there was an issue, then I was granted access again. Just before but not by much, 17.00 but happily I am back in now Phew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 To any moderator at approximately 10:00 am local 4:00 U.K. Time I logged in as normal. I then went and did some household chores and came back at 10:50. When I tried to access the forum I received this message for 15 minutes. “The certificate for this server is invalid, You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be Britmodeller.com” Just curious if there was server issue, maintenance, or was it something on my end ? I use cellular for my internet connection so is that an possible cause ? Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treker_ed Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I think the site has been completely down for a little while. Using Edge Chromium and all i was getting was an "unable to resolve that dns" message. That is usually an indication that the site was down or that the hosting service was not refreshing properly so that the rest of the internet couldn't recognise the background DNS address. Seems to be ok at the moment though 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 We rebooted due to an update, and it took a while to come back up. Remember to use downforeveryoneorjustme.com if the site's ever offline for more than a few minutes 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paws4thot Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 See "403 Forbidden" above, or suspect something your ISP did with "security" certificates at that level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 That might explain this ? Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwaters81tfw Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Dunno what the upgrade was @Mike, but it has slowed down the page loading somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an OS update, so shouldn’t have had any effect on the site’s speed. I’ll look into it today when I get chance and see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
