IT Question
« on: February 20, 2019, 09:59:19 am »
OK for weeks it takes anywhere from 20 seconds to a minute to complete a click to another page which is a link on AutoTrader. The only exception is this forum where things (mostly) work. So just now I get this error message after several minutes wait " 502 - Web server received an invalid response while acting as a gateway or proxy server ". My guess is the mother ship has a router that has gone kaput, and nobody seems to notice?

Down for about 2 hours this morning? I expected an explanation here when it finally became available, like " we finally traced down and replaced the intermittent failing router that caused such slow access to the forum, or sometimes no access at all"  ???

New owners.  So who exactly is running/moderating this forum these days?  Anybody?  or are we just Trader.ca orphans?

I think you have your answer.
