I\'m curious, was LHC@home having network or server problems Friday morning (19 Sep 2008, between 02:15 and 05:15 US Central Time, GMT-06:00)? Was I the only one having connection problems? BOINC got the following message-set, or something very like it, more than three dozen times while trying to fetch WUs this morning. (The WU name below was changed to protect the guilty. <GRIN>) (All times given are US/Canada Central Time, GMT-6:00) 9/19/2008 5:05:40 AM lhcathome|Started upload of w3_lhc_symmetric-q1_xx__xx__x__xx.xx_xx.xx__x_x__x__xx_x_sixvf_boincxxxxx_0_0 9/19/2008 5:05:57 AM lhcathome|Sending scheduler request: To fetch work.

Note that BOINC could reach the reference site, so I don\'t think it was a problem with my computer or my local connection. I was having problems with both downloads and uploads. Because of the connection problems, I only managed to process six very short WUs. I didn\'t get close to the 20 WUs per day limit (which is another issue...). During that time, I was also experiencing a lag of around 45 to 60 seconds on another connection to a German site, then that connection dropped completely and I\\\'m using an \"emergency\" front end to access it, now. US sites did not seem to be affected. Cheers, Stephen I The perversity of the universe tends to a maximum.
