    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Contrail App Download Speeds.

Hi All,

I just wanted to ask if any of you have downloaded anything via the Contrail App recently?

I've encountered an issue where I am getting very poor download speeds of around 0.18mb/s, while downloading the //42's Circle B Ranch (now at going for 2+ hours). Whereas before I had no issues with download speeds using their app.

I've downloaded large files via iniManager, Orbx, PMDG Operation Center & a number of other websites/programs, without any issues with download speeds at all.

I sent an email to Contrail support regarding the issue, but they're adamant there is no issue at their end. They stated they were downloading via a CDN Server, which I assume refers to a Canadian Server? Where I'm in the UK.

Am I the only one?

Thanks in advanced.

Keith.
 
My Contrail App had a scenery update for me this morning and it went fast as greased lightning ⚡️here! (near KBHM) south east USA
 
Hi,

Just wanted to post an update.

It appears to be affecting TalkTalk customers in the UK as they've had a few others having the same issue.

Contrail support sent out another version of their app that allowed a different downloading process, which worked. They also suggested that I contact TalkTalk with some settings that they could try at their end...


Cheers,

Keith.
