|

I've been having a hard time getting to blogspot. Is Korea following in China's footsteps and blocking it? |

NO problem for me. Where are you surfing from. Public school have a tendency to block some sites and places like blogspot and Facebook can be caught up in the net. |

Works okay for me too. What's the message you're seeing in your browser? |

For some reason blogspots are ridiculously slow here (fastest internet my ace). The sites times-out almost every time. |

Actually, my sig is the site I'm trying to get to I don't know. It acts up. It's not like it's completely blocked, but there are hours at a time when I can't access it.
MY ISP is Tbroad |

I've also got SK and didn't have any issues accessing it. It's not uncommon for the underwater cable to hiccup and/or experience congestion. Were you accessing it at home or work? |
