    Spoke to the guys at FL: they've had technical problems all day yesterday but expected to be back up and running today. I managed to place an order late last night do looks like it may be sorted now.

    Cheers

    Yeah had to place an order over the phone Monday, was like taking a trip down memory lane, speaking to a human. Even negotiated a lower price on something, last time I checked the big red button don't negotiate.

    Hi Dave,

    If it doesn't work give https://www.fast-lad.co.uk/store/ a go.

    A cached DNS caused an issue a while back for me. Even though Fast Lad have fixed the problem a bad "route" can be cached on your local machine causing problems. The fix on Windows machines is to run this command at the command prompt: ipconfig /flushdns and push enter.

    To open command prompt press the Windows key and R and type "cmd" without the quotes, and then run. It should open a black box where you can type it in.

    If you get a permission error, go to start > all programs > accessories > command prompt and right click > run as administrator.


    For Apple Mac machines you can try the following guides:

    How to Clear DNS Cache in Mac OSX Leopard

    Time will fix it, but the above should give you an instant fix.

    For iPads and iPhones try a full shutdown/turn on. http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/...one/#section_1
