Hi Dan, >From Jon Burgess last week, he suggests trying
http://a.tile.openstreetmap.org/0/0/0.png http://b.tile.openstreetmap.org/0/0/0.png http://c.tile.openstreetmap.org/0/0/0.png if you see a world map on a tile then you're able to resolve those pages and something else is going on, if you're not able to resolve it I might try changing your DNS servers to OpenDNS (http://opendns.org) I just fired up a windows virtual machine and I'm able to ping each of those images above from the command line and the IP address is 208.67.216.132 (which may be due to me using opendns) tracert will tell you if the tile servers are being redirected onto yourself 127.0.0.1 You may have also inadvertently blocked the tile cache with a firewall or internet suite so I would check that if you have it. And you can also try checking your hosts file in %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\ it's the file labeled "hosts" and you'll want to open it up with a text editor (notepad++ or Sciedit etc) and see if they're listed in there (if they are delete them). Good luck! -Tyler On Sun, Jun 21, 2009 at 4:17 AM, Dan O'Hara <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all > > > > I’ve posed this question in a couple of places now – to no avail so far – I > hope that someone can help me. > > > > Until about 6 weeks or so ago, I could use the view tab and see maps.
