Default Locked out of TOTV...again

It seems to be resolved now but I couldn't get in TOTV from this past weekend til this morning. I contacted the admin. via e-mail (good thing I have it) and they didn't detect any issues. Let it be known we do have CenturyLink and they suggested I contact them, which I finally did this a.m. C.L. didn't detect any issues but suggested I go in their website to "talk" with a live-chat. Before I did that---I came here to see if perhaps I could get in and VOILA...I could. I don't know what's going on but it's weird!!!

I have had trouble at certain times of the day in the last three days. I too emailed Admin, but they said it was okay on their end. I don't know what it's all about, because even though I'm not in TV, I've never had this problem before when not there.

It seems like it is the high-traffic times that I can't get on. The browser just sits and spins until it times out. I'm going to try rebooting the whole system.

I had a similar problem, not with this site, using Comcast. It just happens that I had a replacement modem that I had not installed yet, changed out the modem and the problem disappeared. In the past some of this appeared to be with the translation of IPv4 to IPv6 internet addresses, which would typically be done in your providers servers. Comcast had this problem for a few months about a year ago, sounds like CL is going through it now.

It is like when you have trouble with your car. You are told the carburator, or today the fuel injector is no good. So you are sent to a fuel specialist. You pay hundreds to have the fuel system repaired, re built etc and you still have the exact same trouble. So the fuel guy sends you to a transmission place. You spend about 2,000 and have the transmission rebuilt and still have the dame problem.
Some person finds a loose wire and he plugs it back in charging you hundreds for a new thigamajig.

SAME PROBLEM AS IN THE PAST-finding the right person.
Today, thanks to PROGRESS, when you deal with these people, you do not know their true name, you likely can ever find them again-HECK, OFTEN YOU DO NOT EVEN KNOW WHAT COUNTRY THEY ARE IN. Your computer, it is truly amazing that it works at all. The parts, many of them you need a microscope to see. No one repairs them or even understands how it works. They replace parts till it works.
