Google Msn Gmail Yahoo Not Opening? Try this

October 20, 2008 by Amit Bhawani

Websites Not OpeningWhen you try to access your email account at gmail.com and it does not load, dont you get frustated? Well this does not happen always because its a very rare case that these websites would go down at any given time but there are still chances this can happen which is less than 1% of their total uptime. Another reason would be your ISP because of whom your internet connection cannot open these websites and you feel that these websites are down.

Website Address Not Found

The first and foremost thing which you should perform when something like this occurs and you need to make sure that the internet connection is up, for which you should check out these Broadband Speed Test Tools for checking your broadband speed. If the speed test tools show you that your broadband speed is slow then check out different ways to Boost Broadband Internet Speed

If you find that your broadband speed is normal and still you are unable to load these websites then its time you check out whether the specified website is down or not using a free proxy website. Sometimes the websites don’t open on your IP but do open on another IP which you can find out using proxies. Dont access any password protected/finance related website because proxy websites are not always safe and you can lose your secured data while accessing websites using proxy.

If the problem still persists and you are not able to open some websites which your friends are able to access then you need to make some changes in your internet connection settings and change your DNS. Check out our article on some websites not loading which can help you out using Open DNS.
Click on Properties Option on the Internet Connections :
Wireless Network Connections
Click on Internet Protocol Properties :
Wireless Internet Connections
Finally change your DNS Settings to these : 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220
Change DNS to Open DNS
