Can't Access the Download Page

[larry156]

Sorry if I've posted this in the wrong place, but when I try to download Forge, the download page (files.minecraftforge.net) doesn't load, and Chrome says this:

 

"Google Chrome could not load the webpage because files.minecraftforge.net took too long to respond. The website may be down, or you may be experiencing issues with your Internet connection."

 

I'm connected to the Internet (obviously), and I've tried clearing my cache, but that didn't help at all. Earlier today I've tried to download Forge as well, but ran into the same issue.

Nothing we can really do on our end the server is up and running. Check your network and see where it is dieing.

After some troubleshooting, Windows says that the website is unresponsive. Any idea what's going on?

[LexManos]

Your network is borked.

Do a trace, see where its dieing.

Ok did a trace, this is what it says:

(I would put this in a spoiler, but the button doesn't work for me.)

It seems like whatever ISP you have is having issues navigating from canada to ovh. I've told Overmind to take a look but as it's dieing in the middle somewhere we have no control over, there isn't much I can do.

[larry156]

Well that sucks. Thanks for the help anyway.

[larry156]

Ok so I've called my ISP, and they told me to restart my modem (I don't think that will help much if it's only dieing after it goes through TorIX).

 

Also, I can access the OVH website (even the ones in other countries) but just not the download page.
