Ebay down?!?
« on: February 13, 2004, 08:03:12 PM »
The last couple of days Ebay has been sucking wind, now they appear to be completely down. I cannot even load ebay.com(us). I can load ebay.uk and ebay.au, but if I try to log in or do a US search it dies.

Anyone hear anything? It under attack? :-(

Change the location of the item to US. You have to go into Advanced search to do this.

Or just click my auctions link.

Read what I wrote, eBay US, not UK.

works for me. Just checked my account and read my new feedback.


Then it's Bellsouth. I can reach everywhere but eBay. I can't even get a ping response from eBay.

Hey Argo, try this for me. Manually type in ebay.com into your browser address bar and hit enter. Then hit reload. Tell me if it works.

I cannot get to it an all and I cannot ping ebay.com, but I just found I can connect if I use the IP obtained with dig. I cannot only get to the main page though, any links after that  timeout.

 Can you ping with the IP address?


hmm no, weird. I can load the IP in a browser and get to the homepage, but I can't ping it.

Here is my error in the browser.

It's something in my router. I was trying to use a Compaq router, but now I have the Linksys hooked back up temporarily. What setting would be causing the problem I described?
