Title: Connection timeout to britcoin.co.uk from Ubuntu 10.04/Firefox/Opera Post by: ultrarun on July 30, 2011, 10:49:48 PM Hi, I get a connection time out error every time I try to access britcoin.co.uk. I am having this problem since I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx). I don't get a connection from Firefox 5.0 or Opera (latest) and I tried two PCs (both have the same setup). When I switch to Win7 though it will load the site from within both browser. I remember that before upgrading it was fine. Other exchange sites work ok, including intersango.com, which has the same server software running as britcoin I think. I am looking at this problem since the beginning of June and wonder if someone experienced the same. cheers Title: Re: Connection timeout to britcoin.co.uk from Ubuntu 10.04/Firefox/Opera Post by: jmlm-1970 on February 13, 2012, 06:01:01 PM The solution for some URL return timeout error is in firewall settings.
Just disable the following, in firewal preferences (menu Edit/Preferences/Advanced Options): block broadcasts from external network block broadcasts from internal network block traffic from reserved addresses on public interfaces Have fun, Joćo Moreira. |
