OBDLink down ???

[richie9mt]

Anyone know why OBDLink is down??? https://www.obdlink.com/

I check the Support page monthly to see if a new firmware has been posted, but that's down too... https://www.obdlink.com/support/ex/

ScanToolNet is down too... https://www.scantool.net/downloads/updates/obdlink_ex/

That's for the unit itself...It's the web site that's down...

Web site works for me.

Sounds like a DNS issue.

Sounds like a DNS issue.

The site has worked fine for me for the last year; if it is a DNS or server upgrade or other issue then it should resolve itself.

Nothing has changed here for me. I hope the Ukraine-Russia war has not affected OBDLink and/or its developers.

EDIT:

I just checked the OBDLink site and the ScanToolNet site as well and they now are up again. No new Firmware upgrade since 5.7.1

You pays you money and you takes you chances. Thanks for the comments!

Has to be something on your end. How come some of us see it and you can't?

@richie9mt - when's the last time you cleared and updated your browser, or reset/updated (firmware) on router/modem

I can see it now. If the site owner was doing maintenance on his server it would have been off-line for however it took to service it. One of my other interests, https://forum.lugerforum.com/index.php , gets updated regularly. The site owner usually posts that the site woild be down a day or two in advance.

My modem is brand-new this month; my four-year old modem died. Took a week to get a replacement and get back online. Did you miss me???
