Hey All,
This is the post I saw from Gustav Persson on Caer, hope this helps, it explained it best from their thread IMO;
Open notepad as administrator.
Go to the dialogue and open "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts"
Add the following line at the bottom.
104.18.19.242??(??)
Save the file.
You should now be able to access FFN
This should only be temporary, what you are doing is over riding the lookup that a DNS server normally gives for where FFN is located on the internet (the IP address).
If FFN in the future moves to another IP address and you still have this line in your hosts file your browser will try to access FFN on an IP that is incorrect.
So my suggestion is that you delete the line when FFN is up and working again via DNS lookup.
