If it helps track the problem down, I'm in Spain and have never had a problem - perhaps I'm on a different route. Will happily send a tracert if that will help

Has happened to me too last year but the problem disappeared after a while.

managed to get access today to dnf, could not yesterday all day.
i could access any other website yesterday apart from dnforum.com or dnf.com
there is some major problems that need looking at i think
members from all over world, different countries, reporting exact same problem

It seems the problem is with the domain name resolving - not the routes. To get round this I have edited the hosts file in windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts and added the lines:
208.79.80.234 www.dnforum.com
208.79.80.234 dnforum.com
This stops your computer trying to resolve the domain and automatically applying those IPs.

For a while I thought that it could've been the ISP so I contacted them but they couldn't find anything then.

Thanks for your patience, our techs are looking into this and should have it resolved today.

This should be resolved in a couple hours, we switched the dns of dnforum off Go Daddy DNS servers and this should do the trick.

I had the same problem (although I missed this thread). Called my ISP and all, since I could access the site via mobile broadband. It's resolved now though.
