I am a member at xrentdvd, but recently have not been able to access their website (server not found error). I still receive e-mails from them and I can not find any info on them being off-line, so I assume they are up and running. Does anybody have any suggestions on why I would not be able to get to their website all of a sudden. I have tried on all 3 computers at home. I am using Internet Explorer and have not changed any configurations on it. I can get to all other websites I normally access so I do not think it is my firewall. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Try going to http://216.154.235.133

If that works then you have a Domain Name Service problem. You might be able to fix it by simply rebooting your PC or you might have to report it to your ISP to get it resolved.

You might also try clearing your cookies, etc. I haven't had any problem accessing them over the last few days.

Still no luck. I cleared out my cookies, rebooted the PC, and tried accessing by IP address (instead of name). I am perplexed.

Are you running Windows? If you know how to access the command line (usually, Start -> Run, type in cmd ) then you can try to ping the server:

C:\>ping 216.154.235.133

If you get something like the above then your computer can reach XRentDVD's server and you have an application problem. However, if you get this:

Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.

then your best bet is to work with your ISP to resolve the issue.

Thanks for the help. I cannot ping the IP address so I figure it is a problem with my ISP. Got to get them on the phone. Thanks again.

FYI: I got an answer back from Customer Service at xrentdvd and they suggested that I cycle power on my DSL modem and router. I did and, sure enough, I am back on xrentdvd!
