Aussieflyer38 Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Hi Nick, not sure if you can help with this. I have a new rig, (you may have seen a couple of posts from the guys), it runs Windows 11, I tried to get it changed but too late, it was in the truck for delivery. My problem is (relating to flight simming) I cannot get onto the forum. (I typing this on my old computer). The address I use is http://forum.orbxdirect.com unfortunatelythis doesn't work. Is there another address to use, I can't find any, Google and Bing don't work. If you could help, thanks Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Hello Don, the link is the right one and I have been using it with Windows 11 and Microsoft Edge since they were both released. If Google and Bing don't work either, then perhaps you need to review your internet settings on the new PC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilot100 Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Try https://forum.orbxdirect.com/ - the https is secure and I use win 11 and it is like mother only lets you do things that are safe...... If that doesn't work as Nicj says its an internet config / router issue Brian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Nick, the weird thing is I can get Orbx Direct no problem, and haven't found much else a problem, except trying to save my "Community" folder. you may have seen that post. I don't know much about internet settiings, what would I be looking for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilot100 Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 you might try rebooting your internet access router (its a bit brutal but simple), that would probably flush the routing tables beyond that we would need to try some IP tests like trace route to see what is going on. have you tried a simple ping to that site address ( do you know how to do that?)

pilot100 Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Also if you have any anti virus or firewall options set try turning them off and see if that allows access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
