Hi Vic,

I have been having the same problem on my home computer and ran the same tests as you did, with the exact same results. Have you figured out how to access the site? I can still access it from my work computer, but for whatever reason, I can't access it from my home computer.

Most websites now a days (or at least the hosting providers) do not respond to ICMP PING requests as it allows would be attackers to know if the IP address is actually live or not. The thinking is actually quite flawed are far more detailed ways to check if a host is alive or not if someone wanted to poke and prod. For what its worth - it is coming up just fine for me through Shaw in Surrey.

I never figured it out....... can't access it from home ....... but I can at work which is a pain in the butt since I would not mind checking out the website on the weekends, so that I may go in and get stuff.

Cheers,

I assume you have rebooted your computer. Had the same problem, for some reason a reboot solved the issue.

I've had this problem since christmas before the boxing day sale.

I've shut down my computer many times since then.

Finally I checked to see if I could access the J&L site........... I finally got through.

I could not access it since Christmas before the boxing day sale.

I still haven't been able to access it from my home computer. I seemed to have checked everything, with no luck.

Don't know what to say.......... I just checked every once in a while and today was my lucky day.
