usfirst.org down? Nope.

Something’s wonky with the website right now, so the link http://www.usfirst.org will lead to nowhere.

Use http://usfirst.org without the www. or visit http://63.251.142.250/

Hope this helps.

The link with the “www.” works as of Jan 3, 11:37 PST, so I guess they fixed it.

These site always has problems around this time. It sees alot of hits. FIRST did a great job this year dealing with it though and getting all the service restored in a fast time manner

Trying to get to the FIRST web site usfirst.org and getting site not found this morning. Was working yesterday. Anybody else having this problem. Any suggestions??

They’re probably updating or uploading something.
Give them an hour and try again.

The problem is with http://www.usfirst.org/

can anyone access FIRST website? www.usfirst.org?

i can’t at the moment, and i couldn’t for like last 1 or 2 hrs.

10

http://usfirst.org/community/frc/default.aspx?id=966

works here

11

Fine here as well. Main page anyways.

12

Ditto. I haven’t been able to access the site either.

Edit: Just accessed via the link from JohnBoucher above. Thanks.

13

Can’t access www.usfirst.org, but it works if I leave the www off.

14

Oh, hey… look at that. I wouldn’t think that makes a difference, but that’s the same case for me.
Very odd. HA!

15

No, it did not crash, but the DNS entry evaporated. Try accessing it through its IP address, http://63.251.142.250

http://www.usfirst.org does not work from here. But, http://usfirst.org does. (Take out the www)

17

The www is not resolving. If you Google first they show a www version of the URI. Clicking on it will throw the DNS error.

Both versions should resolve to the same IP. Must be a DNS problem somewhere

18

Thanks it works fine for me without the www. I will upload the game manuals without the encryption code to our site.:smiley: Currently you can download the whole package with the encryption code here

19

is something up with the FIRST website or sever?
I can’t log on to any of their pages

Its been going in and out for me most of the day. That post Kickoff traffic surge you know.
