Does anyone from the staff ever read these posts?

I am wondering that now, wish we could get some kind of feedback :(

Just had to wait over a minute for a thread to refresh and had to then wait another 30 seconds to get the thread to refresh with the add post box so I could post in a thread....

I take it it's a hosting issue and not a routing issue?

I suspect it may have something to do with the banner at the top of the page, which has not shown anything for quite some time. At least on my PC.

I turned off my web ads blocker for the Maxthon browser I use and the ad shows up now in the banner but it still not opening the page correctly so that wasn't it. I also noticed if I move my cursor over the topics at the top of the page (control panel - main - forums - blogs - etc) they all drop down and stay there. Now thats weird and possibly indicates a proplem with the main page display.

Maybe the site was attacked and they though they had it fixed but there is still corruption in the code.

I thought everything was fixed but as I tried to type this post the browser froze several times and then when I went to post what I had written my post dissapeared. Then I had to deal with a frozen browser even to close pages and log out. This time I'm on Opera and things seem better, So its an Explorer thing. Never the less its very irritating and soon after signing on I want to sign off in frustration. Unless they fix it they are definately going to lose new subscribers if not chase away present ones who use Explorer or Explorer based browsers..

Don't you just love how the moderators jump in here and say "we are aware of the problem and are working on it!".

It would appear that they don't care?

I hope they do care I really do, because in its current state Neowin is almost unusable for me. It would be nice to have input from an admin / coder regarding the Forum :/

I do as well but after 39 posts without even a response from staff, it kind of makes you wonder.

Boy , I must have gone completely bonkers for awhile. Next thing your going to tell me is that there have been no posts removed. :rolleyes:

Hmmm, I make a mistake, It is noticed almost immediately. But yet there still in no response to the original problem. :argh:

Yes, but it seems to be YOUR problem. Everyone else here is saying the site flies for them.

read the posts that are saying the same thing I am. But we are al whiners according to you anyway.

Same here and the site is rendering very strangely.

Read this one

Yes, I'm having the same problem :(

This one

I don't know if this is related but when I am on the main page, I get the error page that comes up when the site goes down telling you to goto the IRC, I refresh and it goes away. I click on a link to go else where on Neowin, and I get the same error, refresh and back to normal.

This one

Just wanted to add that I am getting a few IPS Driver errors as well, just within the last 5 minutes. I even had one in the recent forum activity area.

This one.

Apologize in advance for bumping an old thread if I shouldn't have, its not that old.

Last few days, about a week or more even maybe, browsing Neowin forums has been a struggle. It seems fine and super fast bout 70% of the time, but then I just get pages that take foreverrrr to load, load all messed up with no formatting if they do, or just get this timeout error, constantlyyyyyyyyyyy.

Connection Interrupted

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again.

I've tried adjusting different stuff in Firefox, no pipelining, ipv6 on and off, no adjusting of connection limits, and just using another browser entirely, Google Chrome (official version not the dev version) and IE8 (that ships in Win7 beta). Having exact same problem in every browser no matter what I do.

Before say check firewall/network settings, I have, and, Neowin is the ONLY site I have this problem with.

Its becoming reallyyyy irritating.

This one and the ones that were in fact removed.

read the posts that are saying the same thing I am. But we are al whiners according to you anyway.

No, this would be a problem, as opposed to a lifestyle choice.

This one and the ones that were in fact removed.

I'm sure you'll blame the MSM, but no posts were removed from this thread recently.

Why can't you stay on point. The slowness and unresponsiveness of this forum has nothing to do with the MSM or anyone lifestyle. I don't even know what the hell you are talking about there. I do know that myself and others get IPB errors at times of the day. The site is slow to load. There are problems , but all that Neowin has done since the original report is to stick their head in the sand. Since there has not been a reply after 40 posts, that is all I can believe that Neowin is doing. Now try to stay on topic and explain why?

1. There was not a single reply for weeks.

2. The problem exists and not just on my end, as other sites I visit work fine.

1. There was not a single reply for weeks.
Site is ok here and was ok for the last few weeks...

Stop downloading porn/torrent and it will be ok...

I'm sure you'll blame the MSM, but no posts were removed from this thread recently.
What's MSM? Google found: methyl sulfonyl methane :p

Stop downloading porn/torrent and it will be ok...

Sorry but I don't do that, I don't even have a client to download a torrent with.

BTW: All of the complaints were not from me and they are intermittent.

Even if there would be 100 complains, that don't mean that Neowin the site itself have problems you know.

That can mean that there is few persons that download like crazy, few persons that have trouble with their PC (Malwares), few person that have trouble with their ISPs, that few problems have occurred between their ISP and the ISP that give IP to the Host that host Neowin, that could mean that the server could have got too many request at that time, and there many other reasons that could happens and that is impossible to fix for Neowin, since they are not from them.

You act like EVERY TIME there is a bug, and someone complain, it's the fault of Neowin.

Sorry, but this is not the case... I would says that 90% of slowdowns and bugs on a site are not actually happening on the site's server.

    • Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack by Fiza Ali Anthropic has announced Claude Tag, a new feature that lets teams work with Claude directly inside Slack. The idea is simple: once Claude is added to a Slack workspace and given access to selected channels, users can tag @Claude in conversations and assign tasks. Claude can then work through those requests using connected tools and data sources before posting its results back into a Slack thread. What makes Claude Tag different from a typical chatbot is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Everyone in a channel interacts with the same Claude instance. This allows the team members to see ongoing work and continue tasks started by others. Furthermore, Anthropic says the AI can build context over time by following conversations in channels where it has permission to operate. This means users don't have to repeatedly provide the same background information for every request. The system is also designed for asynchronous work. Instead of waiting for responses in a chat window, users can assign a task to Claude and return later once the work is complete. Anthropic says Claude can break larger requests into multiple steps and use connected tools to complete them. Moreover, the system can also schedule follow-up tasks and continue working on projects over extended periods. Another feature allows Claude to keep the users updated and follow up on unresolved tasks when its optional "ambient" mode is enabled. The company says the tool is already being used internally for software development, data analysis, support workflows, and debugging. According to Anthropic, around 65% of its product team's code is now generated through its internal version of Claude Tag. For organisations concerned about security, administrators can control which channels, tools, and data sources Claude can access. Separate Claude instances can also be configured for different departments, helping keep information isolated between teams. Administrators can also monitor activity logs, review completed tasks, and set spending limits at both the organisation and channel level. Claude Tag is now available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers and runs on Claude Opus 4.8 that was announced this May. The feature will also replace Anthropic's existing Claude in Slack application, with current users able to migrate within a 30-day migration window. Lastly, eligible customers will receive introductory credits to help teams evaluate the new experience.

On the connectivity side, the Studio Pro use Class 1 Bluetooth for a stable, long-range wireless connection.

    • Those extra reboots are related to the UEFI Secure Boot certificate update thing.
