Cell phone can't view Anandtech.com!

[blacksheep242]

Hello, am I the only one who cannot view www.anandtech.com or www.anandtech.com/mobile/ on their smart cell phone?

I find this odd since I have a highly capable Nokia N95 8GB phone that has Never given me a problem viewing any other website in the past.

But when trying to view anandtech I always get the error:

Web:
Page does not exist


Anyone have any ideas what would prevent my S60 3rd Edition phone from viewing this awesome website?


Thanks so much.

Working just fine for me on my BlackBerry Pearl. Not really sure what your issue cold be.

Download Opera Mini. Most in-built browsers (iPhone and Blackberry Bold excepted) are shit.

yeah, i figured Opera mini would do the trick but I was trying to stay away from that since I used it before (with my SE W950i). I didn't like it too much. Considered Opera Mobile too but tried the trial and it ran very sluggish (responsiveness) on my phone. Weird.

But it puzzles me why every website I've been to before from voodooextreme to Bank of America to Amazon and even Youtube (desktop version) work flawlessly when anandtech.com doesn't work at all.

Hmm, frustrating indeed.

Fusetalk is crap.

atforums.mobi works GREAT for the forum. I was hoping for the main site. Thanks though.

sorry to bring this back up from the dead, but im having the same issue on a nokia 5800 (S60v5) atforuns.mobi works fine, but the anandtech main site and the non-mobile version of the forums return the same error.

Both sites working fine in Pocket Internet Explorer (on a 6.5 ROM) and Opera Mobile

HTC G1, works like always, just checked...

strange. I can load the google cached version of the front page with no problem, but going to ananadtech.com gives me that error

using a nokia 5800 with firmware v30.2.011

Works fine for me on the Tour with four different browser, stock, opera mini, opera mini 5 beta, and Bolt.

Android for the win.
Default browser rocks, and you can download half a dozen others for free.

OP's problem was fixed long ago, but I'd like to repeat the point that most built in browers are junk and Opera mini is available on almost all platforms.

I remember I couldn't go on the main Anandtech site on a N97 too... Had the same error. Can't check right now as I don't have the phone anymore.

hmm seems to be a nokia s60v3 / s60v5 issue.

A few things are not making sense though:
- if it is indeed a browser problem, then why is the google cached version of the main page loading with no issues?
- even if it the browser not being able to load some type of content on the site, it should be able to give a text only version or just load the text. the error its throwing (page does not exist) sounds more like an DNS error.

shortylickens, what was the fix to the problem, because it seems like its still happening.
