Can't get on to Auctivia

quote:

so what now?????????? wait for them to settle some kind of dispute

ANSWER: Call your Internet Service Provider and raise HELL with them! Flood them (Sprint-Nextel or your 3rd party that's using them) with trouble tickets and demand resolution of the service disruption / discontinuation.

It's a Sprint-Nextel decision to severe the backbone and not something Auctiva can directly fix.

little fish little mind!!!!!!!!
the only promblem thats mine is thinking this was worth something.
i should switch my provider over auctivas problem, DON'T THINK SO.

flood the federal communication commission with complaints, sprit nextell will get the prob solved if thier overseerers get on them

I found this workaround that works! I was able to finally access Auctiva throught Sprint and its FREE.

I found one that works too.....it's called odd proxy. You can turn off the adds with a checkbox and then bookmark to that. Nice thing here is that there is no software required. Here's the bookmark I use to get to auctiva with no ads:

Thanks mattandleah! I haven't been able to log on to Auctiva for DAYS now, but your link got me there! My ebay listings look horrible and the auctiva templates and other content are not loading on my end, but hopefully they will have this issue resolved ASAP. From what I'm reading, it doesn't sound like Auctiva's fault, but rather Sprint/Nextel and undoubtedly is affecting countless other sites and businesses as well.

I use Qwest, would they be involved as well. I was planning on listing today, but all efforts have failed. Even the Odd Proxy one given. Hope they get this resolved quickly.

OK...so I am confused! I live in the stix and cannot get any DLS service so I have Wild Blue sattelite service. So why can I not get Auctiva to stay online?

I had heard on the Ebay forums about problems with people being unable to get on Auctiva but figured it didn't apply since I don't use Sprint, etc. However I do have cable access, and I am finding Auctiva to be incredibly slow today (Sunday) to the point of being unusable. I am concerned about trying to post listings for fear or what might (or might NOT) show up once they get onto Ebay. I may try to do one auction later tonight as a test, but if they don't fix this soon I am going to have to find some other kind of service for templates and photos.

I'm with you Stachmo and I use comcast. AT first I thought it was my connection so I rebooted twice and closed all other windows including Ebay. TO NO AVAIL. This is just awful and customer service I guess is off for the weekend. Not a good sign : (

Finally got a response from cutomer support and here is what they are telling me to do, like it will help getting listings ready for tonight.


Thanks for contacting us regarding this matter, and I’m sorry to hear about the trouble you are having. I would like to assure you that all of our servers are up and running perfectly fine. We have informed our technical team about this matter and they are currently looking into it. It appears that this slowness issue is accounting due to some temporary congestion in the network. I would advice you to please take a break and try back with us after sometime.

Thanks Iceman....Too bad there isn't a chat vehicle on here huh? I'm waiting till later to try to list some more. Meanwhile, Nascar is on!

back up here ,finally

Good News!

It appears that Sprint-Nextel have reconnected the backbone with Cogent. Looks like it happened within last two hours.
