@Frank I don't have an answer to post (and don't want to post a fake one), but the list of recent answers suggests the problem may be local to you. Maybe you could do something to change the IP address your computer is using?

Frank

@FamousBlueRaincoat hmm.

Guess I could restart the router

@MaxVernon This one makes me laugh:
