its fine..been back up for 2-3 days now.

I figured that since I havent heard any other complaints in days.
So what could the problem be on my end? I've tried multiple machines and browsers.

are you signed in on your account on all these machines?
if so try one that hasn't been logged in, in case the issue is with your account.

They had issues for 3 days in a row. From what I read try restarting your router, if that doesn't work, try changing your dns server if you know how to, that may help you connect.

They were being DDOS'd.

I was logged in with my main machine when the the site went down. I believe both machines were set to log me in when connecting to MFC.

I tried resetting the router with no result. I have no idea how to change the dns server.

On vola many are reporting no access, yet many others are saying everything looks normal (as it does for me)... so I think the problem is MFC's and they will have to work it out.

Fortunately, It's not that hard.

Look for it in your router settings, likely under WAN settings, just look for DNS server. Here's one webpage explaining it, first hit on google http://www.online-tech-tips.com/cool-websites/free-dns-server/

Changing DNS did nothing.

does it get to the home page and say "logging in" or something like that and just hang like that?

 

[questionmark]

this is gonna be out of the box thinking...
have you contacted MFC support?

That sucks, I do not have the problem myself so I cannot troubleshoot it. The only other thing I can think of to try is to use a VPN to see if your area is what is blocked.

I mostly notice it happening in the afternoon PST on both my mobile and pc. It connects to the website but hangs on loading the models and the rest of the links etc.

Occasionally it will actually load the header bar before hanging, mostly I just see a white screen until Chrome loads a page with:
This site can’t be reached
www.myfreecams.com took too long to respond.

I don't even know where to find them. Hell, the profile pages won't even load.

maybe they determined u were the reason for their last outage and banned u.

id had some luck reinstalling the browser, not uninstalling it 1st, just install it and let it do its thing. ive gotten it to work sometimes.

go to the myfreecams wiki

there's a support section there where you can email them
