I have the strangest problem that started in the last five days which is that I cannot reach helium.com anymore with any browser on my computer. It is either a routing issue or something to do with the network layer, but I tried with Internet Explorer, Firefox and Google Chrome. I get the same error with each browser no matter what I try.

I have already rebooted my computer, rebooted my router, cable modem and nothing resolves the issue. Clearly helium.com is not down as many other people say they can reach the site just fine, yet I cannot hit the site at all. Is there a routing issue between the Cox subnet and helium.com subnet?
Wonder how long until this resolves itself, or if it will resolve.

Hi,
Sorry to hear you are having problems accessing Helium.com. It works fine for me. Did you try using a different computer at another location? This is my first time going to helium thanks to you. I bookmarked it in Diigo for you, can you see if from this link? http://www.diigo.com/user/ileane
Hope this helps.

So sorry to hear that Justin. I can access my Helium account just fine and no problems at all. Unfortunately, I can not answer your question as it is too technical for me.

Did you trying reseting your router (clear the memory)? Sometimes clearing the computer’s cache helps too.
