&lt;p&gt;The Beoworld Forum has been running at normal speed and there have NOT been any recent failures.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, I have noted recently that the traffic between the UK and the servers in the US has been very high, so this is likely to be the cause of the issue for some European based members.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The only exception to this is if you press the &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#0000ff;"&gt;HOME&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; button at the top of the forum or you have bookmarked it in your browser, then you may get the Standard forum Error message, this is where the response is too long and so it times out. Pressing teh Forum button immediately takes you back to the forum.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Connecting to forum very slow</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/254512.aspx</link><pubDate>Sat, 23 Jan 2010 06:17:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:254512</guid><dc:creator>elephant</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/254512.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=254512</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;LOL, yes it was &amp;quot;miss&amp;quot; that was missing&lt;/p&gt;
