How often does Slickdeals experience connection problems?

Just recently, Slickdeals seems to be down around last 3-5 minutes.?

Has anyone else been having some problems connecting to SD?

I have been getting DNS errors and ping timeouts on and off for the last couple of hours.

I have been also, but I thought it was just me.

Same here.....same here....same here....All other sites were working...so I know its not a problem with my connectivity...Hate it when this happens :(

Same here, for about 10 minutes right before 1AM eastern. Defragged my HD while waiting... :lol:

Sometimes links don't work. When that happens, I've noticed that if I just delete the "http://slickdeals.net/?t=43522&u2=" from the beginning of the URL, it works fine.

i thought it was another server problem for me. more comforting.

...though they're definitely not alone! I'm currently quite happy editing the URL if and when it doesn't go through.

Yes, there have been some major problems with getting through recently. For the past few days, at least. Sometimes I'm so afraid I'll miss a good deal that I end up at FW for a few minutes. :mad:
