Can't access this site from desktop?

I'm posting this from my android g1 at the moment because I can't access it from my desktop, it will just time out trying to open any xda page after about 20 seconds. I can open other websites fine on my desktop and I can open xda dev fine from me phone, and my laptop on the same connection as my desktop. It was working fine a few days ago on my desktop then suddenly stopped. Seems kind of weird, any ideas?
Thanks a lot!

Thanks, followed all those steps and still no luck with loading the page. HOSTS file was clean, reset router and modem, cleared dns cache, cleared all internet data (ran ccleaner), turned off Avira and Comodo, and I never got the site to load.
When I try and trace the connection, it says the following:
"Tracing route to www.xda-developers.com over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 destination is unreachable."
When I try this on my laptop (using the exact same connection), it lists all the times (in ms) per hop and the location etc.
I'm stumped on this one.

Got it!
Peer Guardian 2 was blocking certain websites. Unchecking "block http" does the trick.
Now it's working, damn that makes me happy, love this site.

Opera crashes and Internet connection probs with TP2

Hi all,
I am loving my TP2 but have a couple of annoying issues. anyone else experiencing the same...?
Firstly Opera keeps crashing. Tends to happen when trying to log in to a site. www.facebook.com mobile site is fine but crashes if I try to log in to the full site. I downloaded Opera 9.7beta and it does the same on that one too.
Also my internet connection keeps dropping. If downloading emails it might download the headers then lose the connection. Sometimes pressing send/receive gets it back online but othertimes it wont connect again until I go in to comm manager and turn the phone radio off then back on.
Frustrating problems that I didn't expect from a brand new device.

Never tried logging into the full site. I tried it right now but it I can't even input my username. So I gave up. Using the mobile site is just as good. I don't think it can handle the full site anyway.
I have never lost my connection in a good reception area. It could be your area or your carrier that has a weak reception. Try in a different area or try the phone using another network or carrier. Ask a friend to help you that uses a different network.
Make sure they are ok with you using data tho.

I had the same problem when logging on full Facebook site on my old Kaiser with Opera 9b1, it was crashing.
But on my TP2 using the included Opera, its working quite good without crashing.
Maybe you installed another sofware that uses all the memory ? just a random guess.

Looks like the HTC built in T-Mobile settings could be the cause.
The built in settings have a Proxy Server setting that I couldnt remove so I set up a new connection using:
general.t-mobile.uk
user
pass
And did not set up a static IP address. It seems to be stabler in the 20 mins I have used it and I can now log in using the WM Facebook program as previously it would not let me log in.
Hope that helps someone.

I'm back again for some help!
I have managed to get Facebook working and Opera no longer crashes using the new data settings I entered but I am still losing my data connection.
When I lose it I get the "Cannnot connect for an unknown reason" pop up box. If I clear it I can occassionally get the connection to then activate but usually I am having to cycle the phone radio within Comm Manager before it will go online. This is really annoying as if the box comes up it won't check for email till I OK the message and get the data connection working again.
I am using a T-Mob sim that worked fine in my Tytn II and checked all settings but all seems ok.
Could it be a faulty radio that keeps kicking me offline? Calls seem ok. I have dropped a few but have also had 30 min + calls so seems to be specific to data.

I had the same problem when i first got mine had to do 2 hard resets before it went away, after it returned again i just started using the energy rom and never looked back

Opera 9.7 beta
I tried installing the new Opera beta on the unlocked/unbranded Touch Pro 2 it either doesn't start getting stuck at the splash screen or it starts and then crashes after a click or two. I am unable to use it at all. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

Error browsing the internet with GPRS

I recently bought a new HTC s620(EXCA 100) phone with Windows Mobile 5.0. I have subscribed for internet thru a local GPRS carrier, everything works fine except my internet access. Initially everytime i access a web site (using IE) it works for about 4 mins max then gives a time out. It has worsened with time now i only browse for 30 secs and it times out.
I have tried:
An alternative browser (Skyfire) and this as well times out from time to time, so i have eliminated that the browser has the fault. My common sites are m.facebook.com and mobile.yahoo.com, which are secure site, but i even get the issue with non-secure sites.
A hard reset on the phone which has proved futile in rectifying the problem.
Reconfiguring the internet settings with my GPRS provider
I have also tried my sim card in another phone, this sim card worked to browse online with no issues. Then after hooked my phone onto my PC at work and browsed via the company’s LAN, I had no problem there either.
I can only conclude that my phone has the problem.
The errors I constantly get are:
- Alert..The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later.
- Error.. Cannot connect. Verify you have network coverage and try again.
Thanx in advance… awaiting ur assistance.

You can try to update your rom to a more recent version.

Having the same problem here...
My Dash just started having the dame problem recently. And it's driving me bananas! I have tried everything EXCEPT flashing the Rom. I"m trying to not have to flash the Rom because it's always a major pain in the ass to do it...i always get the 3% error and get stuck in the loop of all the fixes, which without fail, DON'T work.
Anyway, does anyone have a work around for this that doesn't require flashing the Rom?

I had the same problem too with my Dash. What I did was go to my service provider's website and copy the settings for my phone. By default, using the Connection Setup of the Dash would configure the GPRS as it were inserted a postpaid SIM. Since I am on a prepaid service SIM, I had to manually change some of the access points (example: from www to http) as instructed by my provider's website. After that I had no problems connecting through either Internet Explorer or Opera Mini 5.

You shouldn't have any problem with flashing if you follow correctly the instructions error 270/3% while flashing

[Q] internet connection through wifi problem

I upgraded from my G1 to the new G2.
I am in the military and currently deployed to Iraq. I pay for wifi internet in my dorm. Using my Laptop or my G1 i am able to connect to a wifi service out here that i pay for. once i connect i pull up the browser and it will redirect me to the log in page for the server (where we have to enter a username and pass to allow acceses to the internet. without entering it we are only connected localy). when i use my G2 i can connect to the wifi hotspot no problem, it shows me "obtaining IP adress" and then says "connected to balad-hotspot" just like it would on my computer or G1. but when i pull up the browser it just goes to a "web page not available" for anything i type in. it wont automatically redirct me like both my laptop and G1 do. i even tried typing in the adress it pulls up on my computer when it loads the log in screen, but still shows me "web page not available" Does the G1 and G2 use the same browser? and if so why doesnt it redirect me? what else could cause this problem or fix it please?
with the new OTA update for wifi calling and sms messages you can see why i would love to have this issure fixed. also if i go to a free wifi area (such as a recreational center, where there is no log in neccessary, just connect and go) i have no problem connecting with my G2. so i know the wifi works with it. it just wont seem to redirect my to the log in page or allow it to come up.

firstly: thanks for what you do for our country.
try a different browser. i recommend dolphin HD

thank you!
hmm ok, ill try looking for that tomorrow. can be found in market?

Yes, it is in the market

Wow, they have WiFi at Balad now? Man, when I was there 3 years ago we had to wait in line for a computer! As the others have said, try using a different browser. I'm always switching between the default and Opera depending on what page I'm trying to access.
Oh yeah, if it's anything like Google Voice, the new update may not work for WiFi calling, depending on what country the IP address you snag is registered to. I had Google Voice on my G1, and as soon as I went to Europe and tried to use it on a WiFi hotspot, I got a message saying that Google Voice was not usable in the country I was in.
Stay safe and don't eat too much Taco Bell or Burger King!

haha ya, but its a HUGE rip off. way expensive and slow as can be. but its really our only option to get interent in dorm so im a sucker and bought it.
and for the goodle voice, hmmm i have it on my laptop and it works with this internet. dont know if it will be different with G2 but we shall see.
I tried Dolphine HD and Opera and still having the same issue. it only ever pulls up "web page cannot be displayed" The Internet guys out here said it was my browser. i confirmed with tmo that the browser is the same for the G1 and the G2. yet it works with G1 and not G2. and still wont work with any of the new browsers. Im stuck and this blows!!!

[Q] HELP! Please i dont understand this...

Ok so i just recently tried 2 different roms on my Galaxy Nexus (verzion) phone
the 1st i tried is Liquid smooth , its okay but as i noticed when going to school i connect to the schools wifi it display , to sign in , so i tap on that notification and then it prompts me to go to the browser so i do so and then a window pops up saying to end USER and PASS itype it in and i can surf the web
..
the day after , i switched out and tried Resurrection, whcih i really like but for some reason the same thing happened with tap to sign in to wifi network notification , prompts me to the browser and it does give me that window like the other rom , i dont understand why doesnt it do that
it displays an error and an ip address with /generate_204 next to it .
so whats the problem here like i cant sign into it.

the ROM you are using MIGHT have come with a custom host file for ad blocking is what I'm thinking as first thought to the issue.
if you go to/system/etc/hosts you can edit that file, usually I just leave in the top line that says something like "127.0.0.1 local host"
then reboot and try again. or try another browser. I dislike custom hosts files being included with ROMs for ad blocking purposes. seems to mess up more than it "helps" sometimes(not to mention blocking ads takes money away from developers who use ads as a means for revenue from their apps/sites)
