Diamondback Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 (edited) I haven't been able to get a connect from LEGO.com all day, and was wondering if anyone else has been having problems of late? Edited July 30, 2009 by Diamondback Quote
JCC1004 Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 Works fine for me. What exactly are you seeing? Quote
prateek Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 (edited) It works fine for me too. Maybe you need to upgrade your internet speed or flash or java (whatever lego.com runs on ) Edited July 31, 2009 by prateek Quote

Diamondback Posted July 31, 2009 Author Posted July 31, 2009 I was on just fine a few days ago, maybe it's something with the library's internet connection... Copy/pasting the Firefox error-page: Unable to connect Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.lego.com. Let's try to troubleshoot the problem: * Check Internet connection: Your Internet connection seems to be working! * Try to perform some diagnostic tests: (omitted) General troubleshooting tips: * The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. (But would this be an ALL DAY issue?) * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. (Non-issue--I'm navigating here and most other sites I frequent just fine) * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web. (Ditto) Giving it a whack with Safari now, and it says "can't connect to server" too. Guess I'll try again from a different WiFi hotspot later tonight... ---------------- Now playing: Brad Fiedel - I'll Be Back via FoxyTunes Quote
JCC1004 Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 Anything could go wrong with the public computers. They could have it blocked or something. I'd say just give up. Quote

But I wasn't using a public computer, this was my own laptop--and the glitch is now repeated from a second hotspot. ---------------- Now playing: Bill Brown - USA 11.mp3 via FoxyTunes Quote

Cavannus Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 It worked for me too. Maybe your Internet provider's DNS sever was down, so you should define another DNS server in your settings. Quote
CP5670 Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 But I wasn't using a public computer, this was my own laptop--and the glitch is now repeated from a second hotspot. It sounds like you are on public connections though. I've seen this kind of issue on such connections in the past. A bad DNS setup is the other thing that comes to mind, which you may be able to do something about as the previous poster said. Quote
Diamondback Posted July 31, 2009 Author Posted July 31, 2009 Found the problem: some of my security software was set to "Block HTTP". I'm running a bunch of stuff, all set to "Paranoid", and they don't always play nicely with each other... Thanks for the support, y'all. Mods, please feel free to delete the thread. Quote
