Networking guys, please help

[jscott]

Ok, i can view EVERY single site online right now with no problem.

BUT there is only 1 thing i cannot do, that is check a hotmail account of mine.

i can view www.msn.com, i can view www.hotmail.com, i can log on to my MSN messenger, i even get a popup of how many new messages i have in my hotmail account

but when i try logging in it goes to "Net Timeout Error"

any help please?

Im not really familiar with hotmail does it use any 3rd party software besides IE? IE something that uses another port.
Have you tried it on another system?
Maybe spyware? Virus?
Your hosts file been edited?

use www.mozilla.org or www.opera.com

see if u still get an error

i've tried with IE and Firefox so far, both are unable to get me in

i'll give opera a try.........

i wouldnt bother, if firefox wouldnt after I.E. you're prolly boned

might be a temp routing issue with your isp

Either that or he runs a firewall which blocked those, for some reason.

i've had ssl timeout on me before with certain sites due to my isp....if its a recent problem & no revisions have been made to your firewall its probably a routing issue

try rebooting your modem & router btw

it's not temp thats for sure, because it's been like this for at least a month

Check your firewall, if you run one.

Check your firewall, if you run one.

better yet disable it, chances are if u can load hotmail.com but can't login somehow your ssl is being blocked

sounds like your ip is banned

you don't have another computer you can try with do ya?

net time out error is a ping problem , a bottle neck happening somewhere between you and the hotmail server , so not a great deal you can do about it , just wait a few hours and try again

you didnt read its been going on for months

yep, in 5 weeks that i've been in phillipines i was able to login to hotmail only 1 time, and it was VERY slow, wasnt able to even get to my emails

but ever since then i havent been able to login to my hotmail at all

[biftek]

i would guess that the philipines might have something to do with , i haven't looked into there pipe , but i can guess it wouldn't be as big as more economical countries

as i said , time out errors are ping problems , takes to long for a data to flow

[jscott]

Fuck!

btw, i logged into hotmail at internet cafe few days ago here in phillipines and it worked just fine

have you tried using a proxy?

also I have a friend in England who got a new provider, and he was able to access any other site but hotmail and ebay.co.uk, then he called his ISP and it was some router settings that fixed the whole thing

[jscott]

ok thanks everyone, i'll check into the ISP

appreciate your time and responses
