Lets all relax and give the staff time to fix whatever the problem is..They will eventually go online again...So lets all be patient..

hope they fix it soon

From TB home page.....EDIT2: The connectability issue has been fixed....


I can browse pages but when i try to download i get: Hostname not found

Wtf again...

I can't log in

I'm having same problem as most people, the page won't load from my browser.

I can go to the site but can't log in.

Code:

FOR WINDOWS USERS:- 
Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\ and open the file hosts with wordpad. 
Underneath the line: 
127.0.0.1 localhost 
add the lines: 
85.17.40.246 www.torrentbytes.net 
85.17.40.247 tracker.torrentbytes.net 
and save. 
 
FOR OSX USERS:- 
You will need a text editor installed, like Text Wrangler (available here: http://tinyurl.com/53ltf ) 
1. In Finder, go to Go -> Go To Folder... 
2. Type "/private/etc" in that box, press enter 
3. Find the file "hosts" with no extension. You may also see "hosts.equiv" and "hosts.lpd". These are not what you need. 
4. Ctrl-click "hosts" and go to Open With...-> Textwrangler (or whatever text editor is your favorite) 
5. Underneath the line: 
127.0.0.1 localhost 
add the lines: 
85.17.40.246 www.torrentbytes.net 
85.17.40.247 tracker.torrentbytes.net 
6. Go to File-> Save, and it'll tell you that you have to edit as root. Thats cool, just authenticate it. 
Done! As a note, textedit won't work. It saves as a stupid format. 
 
FOR LINUX USERS:- 
1. Login as root (Google if you don't know how to do this) 
2. Navigate to /etc/ 
3. Open "hosts" with your favorite text editor (nano, pico, gedit, whateveR) 
4. Underneath the line: 
127.0.0.1 localhost 
add the lines: 
85.17.40.246 www.torrentbytes.net 
85.17.40.247 tracker.torrentbytes.net 
5. Save
