Topic: HELP! I can't see Flare at home

Since the move to the new server, I've not been able to view Flare from my home computer.

I can see the site just fine at work, using IE. At home, using Firefox, I'm seeing the message saying I'm looking at the old server.

I've tried retyping the address and retyping the address, nothing works. I even cleared the history.

How do I fix this?

Did the DNS info change? If so I noticed that someplaces don't update all that often. If this is the case you have to sit and wait till the updates propagate.

I have the reverse problem, vieweable from home, not at work (at lunch).

My temporary fix is just to go through a proxy server (which presumably updated their dns faster).

I had a similar problem, When I tried to load flare yesterday morning I got that page. Then it was fine for about an hour and a half. then I got the page again. Now, it's all good.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change.

And the wisdom to hide the bodies of all the people I had to kill today because they pissed me off.

1) Close all browsers
2) Open a command line
3) ipconfig /flushdns

If that doesn't fix it, reboot.

If that doesn't fix it, make sure that you aren't using a proxy in one browser but not the other.

It may take up to 3 days for the DNS changes to be properly spread through the internet.
