Hi Alan,

Do you have ipv6 enabled on your computer?

www.fx.net.nz is ipv6 enabled, and I suspect if the website is loading slowly it may have to do with faulty v6 transit.
(ie, if you are accessing it over a tunnel going via the US or EU)

You could try www2.fx.net.nz which will go to the same place, but does not have a v6 DNS record.

We haven't had any DoS attacks this evening that I'm aware of.

Regards,
Blair Harrison

After observing the post, I attempted to access http://www.fx.net.nz/
and it timed out.
And is doing so again this evening.
Your thoughts?
All else is functioning fine. ( I run PClos linux on my desktop & use Open DNS)
