Hi,

I'm trying to view this website...

http://www.bureauofmilitaryhistory.ie/

I'm being directed to a page with the following message:

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=+1] Welcome to the eircom net maintaining your website page[/SIZE][/FONT]

and so on.

I've checked on a recent thread about the site and one person has replied that they are able to view this site with UPC.

This is the link to the thread:

Do you know why this might be?

Are there other eircom customers having the same issues?

Cheers,

Are you being directed to a completely different page / url ?

If not it's likely that the page has been cached somewhere from when it was under construction. Try hard refreshing your browser (Ctrl +F5) normally, clearing your browser cache itself, and lastly clearing the routers own cache (you would need to check with Eircom how to do this)

Yep it's the same url, it's doesnt seem to be redirecting me anywhere. Cheers for the info, I'll check this out. A reset of the router would clear the router cache would it? I'll take a look for info on my router anyway. Thanks again, hope it works.

Edit: It worked. A reset of the router did the trick. It's a strange one. I've had my current router for years now and this had never happened. Thanks for everyones help.

Works for me on Eircom.
