Hi anyone having difficulty accessing SBF lately. It seems like only Starhub Cable is having this problem.

Yes I agree. Using Starhub Cable, and noticed a lot of disconnections. Need to refresh many times before 1 page finally loads, but when I click on the next link, the same thing occurs.

I'm actually experiencing it now, still.
But I connect via http://hidemyass.com/
which will hide your IP address, so you can surf anonymously. I was not expecting it to help actually.

But to my surprise, it worked. If I use the direct address, it still doesn't work. Hope it helps.

It also work for the many sites blocked by mda.

Me too... therefore using hidemyass now.
Seems like Starhub may block SBF soon... :(

Singtel is OK though. I subscribed to both.

I am having the same problem as I also use Starhub broadband. Could not log on from home since Friday evening. Strangely, I had no issues using my iPhone to log on. Could possible due to the browser being Safari on th iPhone.

Finally managed to log on this morning....and take my daily dosage of my SBF medicine :D

I also cannot load SBF around beginning of this month :( when I saw the amount of user ~ 10,000+ (reg and not) I thought maybe its just holiday traffic... :rolleyes: seems like they are not happy with just taking out our money, now our entertainment also going to be blocked :mad:

Maybe it has nothing to do with our local network service providers. The boss should confirm whether the problem has to do with anything at the server end...

I had the same experience. Quite impossible to get in for the past few days, but so easy to login today.

I had problems as well accessing using Starhub cable. Access was only restored about 9pm today. I am heading overseas next week and will try from Hong Kong and test the access there. If there is a server side issue, access should also be problematic from there. I will post a reply here in about a week's time.

I am documenting the issues I am facing and hope anyone else with similar experience can kindly share.

1. interruptions began around afternoon of 9-Dec
2. using Chrome browser, I got an error message
Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data.
3. tried pinging www.sammyboyforum.com, got all data packets lost
4. later, tried accessing www.sammyboyforum.com and got the home page. Tried logging on using userid and got same error message as above.
5. clear all cookies and cache; tried again and got same problem
6. tried using Internet Explorer, same problem.
7. at around 9pm 11-Dec, problem seems to have solve itself. Been logging off and on for the last 2 hours with no problems.

Are you also having similar experience, please reply and let all know. Administrators will probably need this info to troubleshoot. Hope this helps.

I haven't done anything. How a device in Singapore connects to the server is pretty much beyond my control.

I can fix database problems. I can fix apache problems. If the server is overloaded, I can upgrade to a new server.

The server is in the USA. I'm in OZ. You guys are in Singapore. I tried connecting to my own site using 3G, WiFi and cable all worked perfectly.

There were more than 1 million page views yesterday which is record traffic and the server load is well within limits.

I suggest that if you can't connect, do a traceroute with a network that works and then the one that is causing your grief t to see where it comes to grief. Forward these traceroute results to your service provider.

Trace the hops to 91.206.227.228

For the past few days, I have problem logging on SBF when at home, using Starhub. Its weird though, when I change to use Ipad using home wifi, cannot log onto SBF at all. However when I change to 3G, I can log onto SBF all the time without any problem.

Sammyboyfor Big Boss Big,

Just wondering...how come ur server in U.S not in like Asia assuming most of us are all from Singapore. Me not techie but wldn't that mean we have to do more hops to get to your server as compared if it was in Asia?

Our traffic is probably blocked by the gahmen/telco proxies. Our traffic is not encrypted right? Maybe the gahmen does packet level sniffing and all our data is viewed or analyzed..hehe...what a tot...

Do you use loadbalancing for Sammyboy forum? That way even if gahmen tries to clamp down on ur site, it can route traffic to another IP address...

Hi Bro,
I'm having the same problem again. Since Friday, I had been unable to log on via my laptop at home using Starhub modem. Then, it worked fine when I logged on on Sunday. Since Monday (yesterday), it's the same problem again and really frustrating.

Funnily, I can use 3G via my Starhub mobile line to log on from home using my iPhone4. To test, I switched to WiFi on my mobile and had the same problem. I called up Starhub this evening and asked why am I having such problems, of course not revealing the website I have problems accessing. I just told them generally that I could not access some websites and asked why. I was even asked to connect my laptop directly to the modem and see if I could access, but still unable to, which confirms that my wireless router is perfectly ok. The guy I spoke to did seem to suggest that they do sometimes block some sites, but was not specific. I also confirmed with the guy that my account does not have "Safesurf".

Any other brothers are still having the problem or have managed to resolve it? If you have managed to completely resolve it, how did you do it? I am posting this by using "Hide My Ass", which seems to be the only way I can acces SBF. Really wasting my time and I am certain Starhub has something to do with this. SBF is like our daily dosage and it's been boring only accessing via my iPhone as the screen is too small.

Am using Firefox to surf SBF.

Most of the time, I am able to access SBF and surf as per normal.

However, there were instances where I encountered 504 Gateway Timeout messages and broken pages. In addition, surfing on SBF is sometimes rather slow and takes a long time to load or refresh.

I'm using wireless connection on Singtel's fibre optics.

Hope this issue can be rectified soon :o

True, but why frustrating? hidemyass seems to work very well, doesn't it? Right now, that's how I am accessing this site. Shouldn't it be able to work from any computer, particularly from home?

Hmm..frustrating because I do not seem to be able to reward rep points for some brothers via Hidemyass. Again, this post is via logging on through Hidemyass. I have already called SingTel to ask for their installation charges since I've already got Mio TV. Only issue is cancelling StarHub broadband as there are cancellation charges since my contract runs up till January 2013. May need to ask them to waive on the grounds of poor connectivity ;-)

Almost a week since the logging on issue started, and no idea when this will be resolved.

Anyone tried using opera browser to surf? I tried with no issue. No prob upping others' repute wif it too.

Starhub will always gives the same old lame reason, ask u to reboot ur modem. If prob persist, they'll say ur router not compatible. Else, they'll say ur modem is old model and not up to speed for ur current plan, this resulting in connectivity probs. Loads of crabs frm them. Customer Service hotline minimum waiting time ranges frm 30mins ~ 1hrs. Kaoz!

Anyway, I dun think they are blocking the site cos if blocked, can't even access. Dun think there's such thing tt when they block still can partial access or slow loading. Must be something wrong wif the ISP config.

As promised, I checked the connection to the site from Hong Kong and Shenzhen yesterday and today. I am posting this from my Shenzhen hotel. Connections are both good and in fact seems to be faster than my Starhub connection. Seems the problem is definitely on the ISP side (i.e., Starhub) in my case.

Hi Bro, I tried using Opera browser, cannot even log on. My conclusion is that the issue is with the service provider, in my case it is StarHub. As another brother correctly pointed out, he had no issues accessing the site from HK.

When I called Starhub the other day dialling the dedicated Platinum Club member hotline, I had to hold for 23 minutes before speaking to someone, damn ridiculous! In comparison, my call was picked up in 30 seconds when I called SingTel to make enquires on their broadband. I rest my case, and time to change to SingTel. Will need to negotiate with StarHub on the cancellation charges though....

For my case, my home is running on SH. No issue on wifi. Iphone4S running on M1 3G. Must use wifi to get connected to SBF, else need to use opera or hidemyass.

Hi Bro, try using anonymouse.org

I also could not up fellow brothers using iPhone (iPhone can only view and send messages as well as post) or Hidemyass, but I could do so using anonymouse.org

Already one week has passed since log on problems started with Starhub and am totally pissed off big time, just waiting for their reply on cancellation, then will move on to SingTel; enough is enough :(

If there was something wrong with the site, I wouldn't be seeing 4000 messages posted daily.

Apache server is well within limits and the MySQL server is running very fast.

The problem is in the singapore proxy servers. It caches out of date information. I have set the TTL on my DNS manager to 1 HOUR! It can't go any lower than that. This means that any changes that I make should propagate very quickly. However, if the proxy servers that Singaporeans are forced to use cache the DNS for a much longer period, the site will become unreachable via that particular proxy.

Why don't you call up your ISP and ask them to flush the DNS cache. I'm pretty sure that will solve most of your problems. At the same time you can ask them how often they update the caches.

Agree with u. Infact our local Telcos are useless. Especially StarHub. KNN, what is IDA doing? :mad:

Bro, I managed to log on at first attempt yesterday at 5.30pm, my first log on via Starhub for one week. God knows how long it will last; will find out tonight if problem has been finally resolved when I log on from home. This message was posted using my iPhone.

Sounds like NONE of the IT guys/gals in the StarHub's data center or infrastructure specialists surf SBF :rolleyes:

With the strong membership base here, I'm sure some of us is within the social circle of those fellows, so please introduce them to SBF :D

Probably some FT who are not aware of Singapore's lively sex industry yet. The recent spade of MRT disruption issues brought to my knowledge that now we have 1 foreigner for every 3 Sg/PR.... the population ratio of 40:60 :eek:

For starter, boss can consider promoting SBF in phillipines more, as I betcha the IT fellow in StarHub that manages the DNS is a pinoy.

I created this alternative domain to see whether it makes any difference. Since it's a brand new domain, it does not exist in any of the existing caches so the proxy server is forced to fetch the content from the server.

I have no problem with the new link (www.sammyboysexforum.com).

It is slightly faster to surf as compared to the original one as I had difficulty entering SBF for the whole of yesterday. I could only log on last night.

By the way, I'm using Singtel. Will it make any difference under Starhub or Singtel if the real problem is with Singapore's servers?

Unless they all share one big proxy, there'll definitely be differences in performance.

Hi Bro, I had the same problem as you last night; even unable to log on via Hidemyass as well as Anonymouse.org

I just got home to try to log on via the new link provided by boss and it works just fine. Excellent to be able to get my daily dosage of SBF without all the hassles over the last week or so. Hope this will last and no other problems surface for us.

Am using both domains, and both seem to work well now. The "old" one has been working fine for past 2 days too. I'm with starHub.

That's from your browser cache. Clear it.

So far both is working fine for me. I did encounter some problem with previous link. However after a few days it was ok. This link (http://www.sammyboysexforum.com/newreply.php?do=newreply&noquote=1&p=6699461s) ok too. Thank you SBF.

M1 mobile use http://hidemyass.com, key www.sammyboyforum.com, click on 'hide my ass'. Then log in as usual and surf. No problem for me.
