Chrome (windows 7) timing out

rcfant89 · Jan 25, 2014

I'm trying to get to craigslist and chrome continually says "Oops! Google Chrome could not find Craigslist". All other sites are working on my computer except Craigslist but http://www.isitdownrightnow.com/craigslist.org.html says that the site is up? Also, I already tried it in IE, firefox and Chrome incognito so it's not an old cache or anything like that. What's up?

give it some time, sometimes the ISP owned DNS that translate address to ip need time to be updated... (when there a web that change its domain/ip)

since all connection go thought the DNS it sometimes replay with timeout...

There a other ways to bypass the DNS but it may breaking laws in some places...

Thanks I figured it was something to do with the DNS since all the other sites work but I wasn't sure. It's not a big deal but since I am a networking student I thought I should know. What about searching the site by IP address instead of name? That should work right? Does craigslist work for you as well? I tried googling what Craigslist's IP address is but I couldn't find it. Does anyone know the IP address? Thanks.

u can use free site for ip tracker, they can resolve the name to ip for u.. most of their DNS update much quicker than ISP ones....

I'm glad u understand so I'm not going in detail, because this is one method ISP using to block restricted/forbidden site (required by laws)...

You can check through a proxy server that you can find online. Or I suggest to update your dns with a new range.
