Giotto's Lodge Website: Proposals, Ideas, Problems

[GolfNutt]

Hello Giotto,

Although 1Ball says the web site is looking good from the western USA, it's quite slow from the Midwest at the moment.

I had a great time during my stay in December and will be back soon in March! I need to write some posts about my last trip one of these days, but work has been a pain.

That poolside PC setup you have sure beats my office. Don't work too hard over there. See you soon.

Mattrick,

Thanks, where is the Great White North?

Hello Giotto,

That would be Canada, eh! Anyway, it is an intermitent problem because the page loaded normally the few times I tried last night. Today it is slow again.

It works quite good.

All,

I got a PM from a member that our website is very slow at the moment. I tried it from here, and all screen came up really fast.

Can somebody in USA, Europe or Australia check out the performance of the website and give me a feedback?

Thanks.

California - loads the page fine, but the picture takes for ever to come up.

in aus, i'm on a 48 mbps connection.
the basic screen text comes up fast as usual, but picture is quite slow.

re: http://www.livingstones.co.th/
today the picture downloaded at much more normal speed.
not sure why today is much better.

Looks like Loxinfo gets their Internet connectivity from Hong Kong (PCCW), which is very well connected. All the buggering up appears to be inside Loxinfo's network. But then, I've seen BKK phone cables and I'm amazed they work at all.

Thanks for all feedbacks,

does anybody have an idea why pictures download so slowly, and why the page is fast in Asia but not in other areas?

Any recommendation what I can do, the ISP / host is Loxinfo, a professional "Internet Service Profider".

Giotto,

I'm writing to you from the Wet & Windy North (Ireland). The Livingstone's Website has been suffering for at least a month now. I logged onto the website back in December and the impression I got was not good. Pictures not downloading etc etc. It was only after I recently had some time on my hands and actually took the time to delve into the emails in this forum that I got what I now believe to be a more accurate impression of the lodge. In short the website is currently not really helping your business and is probably causing more harm than good. I do not mean to be stating the obvious to you or to be telling you information that you probably already know. I applaud what you are endeavouring to accomplish and hope to perhaps some day visit your fine establishment. I believe your ISP is not doing you any favours.

Best regards

Struggles to get the full page loaded here in UK. Which is fine as I don't really want the pics visible when I have to show wifey where I have booked for my BKK stay! Better to switch to general view of lodge for business/attached users and the full pics of sports bar et al for ISG types?

Damn you are up late. Loxinfo's own web page does not load up fast either. So maybe it is an issue with them. Between ISP's and ISP's. I'd call them and report it. Other sites in Thai load up same as before.
