II./JG27_Rich Posted October 15 Author Posted October 15 (edited) Maybe I'm banned. Too many 109 pics lolol Edited October 15 by II./JG27_Rich 1
II./JG27_Rich Posted October 15 Author Posted October 15 Yes BladeMeister I just can't help myself I'm sure it irritates some

There are so many 109s and some get their panties in a twist when someone makes fun of adding another variant to the sim. I love the 109 and 1C has done a good job of including some very good variants. 👍 S!Blade<>< 1
Blitzen Posted October 16 Posted October 16 Its still downed for me.I don't think I've committed any no-no's to get banned ...in any case how would I know?

Same for me, except I can open forum when I activate VPN. I use HOXX VPN plugin for Firefox. It's free for 30 minutes sessions.

Can't get it on laptop, PC or phone - Windows error, "hmmm....can't reach this page". Tried on both Edge and Chrome - both say "site took too long to respond" Tried all the usual connection stuff - no joy! Edit: Sorry just read the other posts!

paul_leonard Posted October 17 Posted October 17 The forums are definitely up. Just visited and others are posting as well. I have no problems and haven’t had any in past several days. Odd, but hey, that’s the interwebs for you.
major_setback Posted October 17 Posted October 17 No problem for me. Some beta testers are posting too.
Mysticpuma Posted October 17 Posted October 17 29 minutes ago, Blitzen said: Still no joy- no way here.😜 This is an online VPN. Just enter the ATAG link in the input window and see if you can access it that way. It is weird some can access it and others can't, but open the link, paste the ATAG website page onto it and see if that works? https://www.steganos.com/en/free-online-web-proxy
Aapje Posted October 18 Posted October 18 6 hours ago, Mysticpuma said: It is weird some can access it and others can't If they are under DDoS attack, then one way to combat that is to block the IP addresses from the region that the attack is coming from. So perhaps Blitzen is near to the attackers, or one of the PCs they are using (can be a hacked PC of a random person).
II./JG27_Rich Posted October 18 Author Posted October 18 (edited) I'm in Kelowna BC so that puts me and Bitzen pretty close to each other Edited October 18 by II./JG27_Rich

Dawson Posted October 18 Posted October 18 (edited) I require a VPN service to connect. If IP address blocking is being performed to combat a DoS attack it's being done very broadly. Edited October 18 by Dawson
Blitzen Posted October 18 Posted October 18 Ok...Does that mean there is a light at the end of the tunnel at some later date? Afterall, for me , the main reason for me to check in periodically with ATAG is to check the progress in getting a fully operational CloD, Clod DW, and eventually Dieppe ,in VR and of course to keep track of VR Beta patches . I can live without ATAG if it gets fixed at some near future point... 1
Stormrider Posted October 19 Posted October 19 Internet browser "Opera"has a free to use build in vpn. Only by using the vpn function Iam able to connect to Atag. Thanks to Bonditaria I found this workaround. 1
kraut1 Posted October 19 Posted October 19 The forum for the VR Beta worked today, I was able to post a small report.
Blitzen Posted October 21 Posted October 21 Still off..Maybe you could let me know here if any earth shattering news about F7F Dieppe is posted at some future date? ( not holding breath...)
Mysticpuma Posted October 21 Posted October 21 Amazing that the most active post currently on this forum is about another website not working.

II./JG27_Rich Posted October 24 Author Posted October 24 Oh I hit advanced search but it doesn't work when you try to sign in so I guess I'll just have to wait to post more of my 109 pics

II./JG27_Rich Posted October 25 Author Posted October 25 (edited) Well I'm guessing they're working on things because it's not good if old members can't sign in. Lots of nice info over there Edited October 25 by II./JG27_Rich

Mysticpuma Posted October 25 Posted October 25 At this rate, they may all have to ship over here. Would be great to see some of the team come back and take part in discussions. I wonder if they have the funds to fight this attack?

It is responsibility of ATAG ISP (internet service provider) or hosting service to solve that issue. Optionally TFS/ATAG administration can move forum to another ISP/hosting. But that is not simple thing to do. May be quite expensive too.
FTC_Rostic Posted October 25 Posted October 25 (edited) Also, I think, some old member should join TFS Discord server which is a nice backup option to stay in contact with TFS https://discord.gg/Xc2Pdr5R There is an ATAG discord server too, but it feels quite abandoned. https://discord.gg/ZYTVxmqbH Edited October 25 by FTC_Rostic

II./JG27_Rich Posted October 27 Author Posted October 27 Just for the heck of it I tried this. I downloaded the tor search engine and it worked. Got on ATAG and signed in no problem.
Aapje Posted October 27 Posted October 27 Tor is not a search engine, but a browser, that works sort of like a VPN, but in a way that makes it hard to trace who is communicating with who, so it can be used by people who want to hide their actions from secret services and such. https://www.torproject.org/
