As per title.
The forum home page loads but most sections when I try to access them just won't load. (I'm surprised I've got this far here). This has been the case for a few days. Is there any reason for this and/or has anyone else been struggling? Bear in mind I am in UK - if this has any bearing (but all my other internet connections are fine).

As far as I know, there hasn't been any issues with the forum. Have you tried to uninstall, then reinstall you app, or short cut for the forum? Also, what about clearing the cash memory. And have you tried to access the forum from another device?

No problems here-also UK as you know. I suggest to download Proton VPN-it's free and the whole new world will open for you if you do searches and access american websites via american server. Different stuff in searches,watch videos not accesible via european servers etc. It may solve this issue too.

I;m having issues too but, I think it's more due to the satellite speed. I'm at 16MBPS, if I turn on my Malwarebytes VPN it slows down to 6 :( I'm thinking about going back to microwave towers.

I've just cleared all the cookies - is that the same as clearing the cache?
I don't have another device to try on so not an option. I always access via this lap top which is switched off at night - so 'rebooted' in the morning?
I've managed to type this - but on second attempt (after clearing cookies) as it froze as I scrolled down the page towards the reply box. I'll persevere. It seems like any problem is at my end - which is an answer in itself!
