Slow speed again.

Is there any reason why the Udon map site is running so slow again?
It is taking about 30secs to view topics on the forum.

Message at bottom of page reads ...... connecting to W3.mict.go.th

MICT is the Thai Ministry of Information & Communications Technology, which I understand is in charge of internet censorship in LoS.

Having said that, I am not having any problems loading UM, using ToT ADSL.

Oops - can we wind that back Just experienced the 30 second thing.

I suggest people be very careful what they post for a while

Edit: Be careful if you decide to have a look at MICT's website - it comes up with a red flag on the FireFox WOT scorecard.

Quick for me today Statto - well certainly not one of the slower days...
Using Windows XP & Firefox 3.5.5 and connecting via TOT.

Oh yeah - me too now.
It does not stop me reading (or even starting to post a reply) but does seem to take a while to completely finish loading the page.
Maybe some one at the Ministry should just join UM - quicker for everybody..

Story breaking on TV that the ministry have just blocked a number of international sites...including CNN, Yahoo finance Facebook and other American sites

stattointhailand, is your ISP Maxnet? If so I have a feeling they're playing around with Internet settings again. Over the weekend I've been having problems connecting via CAT. For some reason I keep loosing connection so I have to unplug and reconnect the router to get a new connection. In the end I had enough of doing this so I switched over to Maxnet. Initially I couldn't connect so I called them up, 30 minutes later I could connect.

Then today I notice W3.mict.go.th on each page load, slowing down load time. There also seems to be a problem with statcounter so I will disable this to see if it helps.

Ah, statcounter is American, maybe they're blocking that. I will remove the code to see if it helps.

That may also explain why a couple of my "daily update" e-mails haven't arrived today

Every page load is now filtering through W3.mict.go.th, same on nongkhaimap also. Other sites I have hosted on the same server do not have this problem so it appears udonmap and nkmap is being monitored.

I will check for possible sensitive content and remove temporarily.

I can connect to CAT directly but impossible via wireless. Not sure if the router is broken or the problem is related to MICT.

Anyway just to confirm that I'm getting the same problem via CAT also. What a pain.
