What happened to Armaholic

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I've tried searching forums for answer, but didn't found one. I don't know if it's just me, but I'm unable to access Armaholic, does anybody know what is happening?

No problem here, most likely your internet connection. I would suggest restarting your router, as its likely a DNS issue on your end.

As R0adkill stated-try that. I had similar issues once or twice with Armaholic-it was always just a minor issue on my part.

Have you tried clearing your temporary internet files, browsing history, and cache?  Sometimes strange things can start happening if these haven't been cleaned up in a while.
For Chrome and Firefox there should be a simple history tab, however if you are unfamiliar with the process of directories then you can download programs such as ccleaner or tweaknow and let them clean everything up.

OK, this is really strange.

 

I have tried clearing browser cache, also tried using a different browser, tried connecting from my phone... I've rebooted my router, rebooted my PC, also I've setup DNS to 8.8.8.8 (Google DNS). Still, no luck so far, Armaholic is unavailable. It is definitely problem on my end, I know, but a very strange one.

 

Here, my tracert output:

Trace complete.

For me, it seems like there is some problem on the trace, because last IP reached starts with 87.117.*.* (same as Armaholic IP), but that doesn't explain why it works for others...

This is mine, I get there no problem, could be a routing issue with your ISP or the Armaholic datacenter.

Okay, well, funny thing is - if I use TOR browser, I can get to Armaholic without problems.

 

I'm more used to situations where I can't use TOR browser because of various proxy blockers and other restrictions, not vice versa...

 

Problem is in the DNS then, although I can't understand why Google DNS is not resolving correctly, it may be some local issue though. I remember when Google had a downtime for about three hours in Prague datacenter, and almost 1/4 of the Czech internet went straight to hell... :-/

 

Thanks to anyone who participated in this thread, I was almost thinking that Armaholic got DDoSed for a while :-)
