Title: Internet problems with Cloudflare
Post by: Zaphod99 on Tuesday 18 November 25 14:38 GMT (UK)
The BBC reports that this internet infrastructure company has been having problems today affecting websites worldwide. I had this problem accessing Rootschat earlier on, so I thought I'd mention it in case anybody has a similar experience, although if you do, you won't be able to see this message.

It might just be a coincidental gap but I see that nobody has posted a message in the last 90 minutes.

I do foresee the day when we have a bigger, longer and worse internet problem.

I got that message earlier but obviously cleared now because I read your post!

It's very unstable atm. Some websites resumed working just to stop working again.

I might be wrong but I haven't heard of ATMs being affected this time.

FindMyPast is "experiencing technical issues." I wonder if this is why.

I've been researching for 10 years and I'd never heard of Genealogy Specialists until now. It looks a lot of fun.

The FindMyPast outage page mentioned Cloudflare.
