Okay....what is going on????? This is the third time in 10 minutes that I've been kicked off of CR in the middle of typing in the Forums. I had to go back to Internet Explorer to Log back into CR !! And yes, my Browser Cache & Cookies have been cleared during all those occurences.
It could be any number of things from a storm knocking down phone lines to an accidental bump to upgrades to the game. Everything seems to be working just fine now.
Don't you just hate when you can't wander around here for awhile and forget your troubles?
Dear Lord, lest I continue in my complacent ways, help me to remember that someone died for me today. And if there be war, help me to remember to ask and to answer "am I worth dying for?" - Eleanor Roosevelt

It was just a plain terrible day. The underlying problem had to do with something called DNS - the nameservers from our ISP where on the fritz all day. We have switched to different nameservers, so hopefully that will resolve the problem. Waiting to hear back from our ISP. There is a remote possibility it could be our router on the fritz.
Dissappointing to have the Christmas music down all day, but hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
Of course, Celtic Rock, Celtic Moon, etc. played just fine all day. Unless 365 also goes down, you can still get your CR music fix. (BTW, I've bookmarked these on Winamp so I don't even have to go through 365's website.)

I have the link stored on iTunes at my parents' house so I can listen when I'm there.

May the Irish hills caress you. May her lakes and rivers bless you. May the luck of the Irish enfold you. May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.
Celtic Radio is back up again tonight. Spoke with our ISP and there appears to be a card at the access point down the street that is malfunctioning. They have dispatched COVAD and hopefully this will be resolved soon.
Can not say for sure these problems are resolved until we here back from our ISP but atleast we are up for now.
I have noticed the up to 20 second delay I was experiencing to connect to the CR.net website is now gone. I suspect your ISP has had an intermittent equipment problem for awhile. Hopefully the defective equipment has finally gone into complete failure mode and can be repaired or replaced.

I too concur, the Site is working much better now. I can understand your frustration. I hope all the equipment is in good order now, so we can enjoy some of the Christmas Season listening to the beautiful music, while visiting our CR friends. Thank you for all that you do to make this an enjoyable site to visit
