Same if I use ping on a command line on my PC towards it: ping forum.lazarus.freepascal.org Pinging server.lazarus-ide.org [37.97.187.115] with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Request timed out. Then tested on an RPi3 unit in my home LAN $ ping forum.lazarus.freepascal.org PING server.lazarus-ide.org (37.97.187.115) 56(84) bytes of data. ^C <== Had to break command after 7 minutes --- server.lazarus-ide.org ping statistics --- 423 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 422001ms So the RPi just hangs there, no feedback or result at all... Next I connected with PuTTY to an RPi unit on a remote LAN via VPN and tried ping there: $ ping forum.lazarus.freepascal.org PING server.lazarus-ide.org (37.97.187.115) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from server.lazarus-ide.org (37.97.187.115): icmp_seq=1 ttl=46 time=132 ms 64 bytes from server.lazarus-ide.org (37.97.187.115): icmp_seq=2 ttl=46 time=132 ms HMMM Next I used my phone connected to my home WiFi, same result: Timeout wile connecting to the forum. So I shut down WiFi on the phone and tested again using the mobile network: SUCCESS! It seems like my fiber ISP is blocking the lazarus forums!!!! I need to talk to them. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
