Sorry folks, wouldnt ordinarily do this, but: Have been seeing a lot of post about sites being down. Here's a possible reason: For the last couple days, and continuing for about the next week, is the semi-annual solar conjunctions. That's what happens twice a year, when the Sun happens to traverse that portion of the sky that communications satellites reside in. When the Sun passes "behind" a satellite, then the receiving station is unable to make out the signal; it gets trashed by the Sun. These outages are usually only about 10-15 minutes in length.

:D Of course, it could all just be broken WAN links between routers, too.... sorry for the interruption, and we'll now return you to your regularly scheduled shooting forum :)
