Hi all! I asked for help in the #wikimedia-tech IRC channel
and I was pointed here.
My problem:
since a few months, I can't reach
http://upload.wikimedia.org
The error message I get from browsers it 'Timeout error'
I am located in North Italy and I'm using an ADSL provided by
a major national ISP. My IP address is static - I'd prefer not
to write it here, while I will be glad to provide more details
in private.
http://wikimedia.org works ok - but images in Wikipedia pages
that are from
upload.wikimedia.org never show for me (BTW I
can see the same images if I use .nyud.net proxying system)
http://upload.wikimedia.org is the only URL I have issues
with - my web navigation has no relevant problems apart this.
I already tried changing the DNS servers I'm using, rebooting
the ADSL router, doing a few other common browser/networks
things - it didn't work. I'm usually on WindowsXPSP2 and there
are no active filtering software, firewalls or proxies here.
Thanks in advance.
