Help getting to Website

MJ4H · 12-10-2011, 11:34 AM

One website doesn't work for me but works for everyone else. Can you guys help me solve this?

I can't reach University of Arkansas Athletics.

Pinging the site listed above doesn't work at all.
Pining 216.58.245.103 which is what others tell me it resolves to works, but I can't browse to it. I get page not found.

Nothing in my hosts file to indicate a problem. Turning off my firewall completely doesn't change anything.

Maybe at least tell me if you can reach the website here. Obviously, this is an important website for me to use, so I need to resolve this.

Thanks for any help.

Have you tried changing your DNS server?

Google's Public DNS perhaps?
Google Public DNS

edit to add: And yes, it opened right up for me with no problem. If I had to guess, I'd say they've somehow ended up blacklisted by whatever DNS you're using.

I can reach it fine. Have you tried clearing your DNS cache? At the command prompt type ipconfig /flushdns.

Yes I have tried flushdns.

Changing DNS now.

Ah, for some reason my router was using some set DNS. I changed it to automatically get from ISP and it worked right away. Thanks for suggestion.

Oh the irony of me helping anyone get to a site connected to "that @#$% football coach"

I can't reach it, are you sure the University of Arkansas has an Athletics program?

Just kidding, I can get there.
