August 25, 20205 yr Avsim is now accessible for me at work only about 20% of the time. Seems to have gotten worse over the past month. James Edited August 25, 20205 yr by honanhal
August 27, 20205 yr Author Commercial Member It definitely seems to be a mobile network thing as we have users here on multiple networks on different sides of the Atlantic all reporting regular failures to connect. It's just happened again before I posted this. I had WiFi turned off and avsim wouldn't load. Joined my home bt WiFi and could then post this.

August 27, 20205 yr Library Administrator We know there are some hiccups that are happening for various reasons. Also please bear in mind, over the past few months, we have seen P3D V5 and hot fixes released, X-Plane 11 beta/Vulkan has been released in various forms and Microsoft Flight Simulator was just released. All of this has increased our traffic significantly and brought in new members. The performance is being watched and issues are fixed when needed. Brian A. Neuman Proud simmer since 1982 using the following simulators: Sublogic Flight Simulator 1 and 2. Microsoft Flight Simulator 4.0, 5.1, FS95, FS98, FS2000, FS2002, FS2004, FSX (and unfortunately Flight!). Terminal Reality Fly 1 and 2. Sierra Pro Pilot, Looking Glass/Eidos/Electronic Arts Flight Unlimited I, II and III, Laminar Research X-Plane 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11, FS Aerofly 2, Lockheed Martin Perpar3D 2.X, 3.X, 4.X and 5.X and Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020). Not to mention numerous combat simulators and games related to flight that I have played with over the years.

These look like they are related to upstream network routing, not application load. Cheers! Luke Kolin I make simFDR, the most advanced flight data recorder for FSX, Prepar3D and X-Plane.

To be clear, my comments were comparing my iPhone to my desktop at home, where I've had issues with both. Have only had this happen with Avsim so far.
August 28, 20205 yr From the South of France. I get Avsim anytime without any special problem with my lousy ADSL line. But I cannot go through with a 4G iPhone, at least most of the times. I get a message telling that the page cannot be opened because a secure connection to the server cannot be established. This is only with Avsim.

August 28, 20205 yr Administrators Over that past month or so, I have had no problems connecting with the site. Some minor slowness issues, at times, nothing more. I use smoke signals and beat on logs with sticks for my connection. My backup plan is stone knives and bearskins! 😀 Charlie AronAVSIM Board of Directors-ADMIN/Moderator-RegistrarJust going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!
September 18, 20205 yr I remember someone posting years ago that the Avsim forums were run off an old laptop located in Tom’s basement. That’s kind of how I’ve mentally pictured it ever since! 🙂 Oz Sim Rig: MSI RTX3090 Suprim, an old, partly-melted Intel 9900K @ 5GHz+, Honeycomb Alpha, Thrustmaster TPR Rudder, Warthog HOTAS, Reverb G2, Prosim 737 cockpit.
