Sorry you are having speed problems. Usually you can see if it is TBN (or something else) simply by looking at the speed number at the bottom of the page -- "Generated in 0.604 seconds in which 0.543 seconds were spent on a total of 21 queries…"

We have checked the site several times today, and just a couple of people were having slowdowns. If our servers were at fault, we would know that from various system monitors that track loads and response times.

There can be so many things that slow down web access intermittently, and in different times of the day, or parts of the country.

It may be a caching issue with your web provider, or a router issue, or a “worm” loose on the whole net, etc., etc., etc.

You would need to do a trace route to the tractorbynet.com web site. The tools that do that will show you all of the links along the way (usually 10-30 different "stops" or links). You can see packet loss or slow response times.

Also there is a web site called "Internet Traffic Report." Click on the icon for "N America". There is a lot of interesting info on all of the main backbone providers, and their various response times and alerts for any problems.

We do continuously monitor the operations and response of all of our sites. We appreciate your reports, but in this case, with only 2 or 3 people having a problem out of more than 700 who access each day, our conclusion must be that it is a local problem with your PC, or your local provider, or some response issues on a node being used by your provider.

This means it must be because I and others live near the Junkman.. He's easy to pick on and therefore should take the blame for todays non opening threads;-))

We are getting some un usually high packet loss on trace routes to our servers (AZ to TX via Toronto!). But, this is due to some problem on the Net itself, or one of the large backbone providers, such as MCI, ATT or elsewhere. There really is not one thing we can do about it. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Heck, you think you have problems I'm clear over here in Ohio and Junkman's still giving me a major migraine. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Must be something going on, especially if Toronto is involved. That would explain why Buffalo to Boston area is about the only ones who have been locked out. Every time someone changes a light bulb in Toronto it seems all across I 90 is out of power momentarily.

I recently wrote a short Windows application in Visual Basic that performs a network router trace, without using the DOS Shell to run the DOS command line app tracert.exe.

If anyone wants this app and its documentation, PM me.
