Not sure if this is the right forum and I apologies if not. I use Expression web to update our website on a UNIX server using SFTP.
I use the same laptop, software, that works fine when at home, but when I travel, I tend to get a unknown server error. I am suspecting that it has something to do with the server configuration of the ISP I connect to the Internet with. And no one seems to know what might be causing it. Here is a some data.
On our ISP, Southern Bell, it always works, regardless of how many time or IPs I connect to.
We have 2 connections in the Philippines. 1 works and the other does not.
When I travel and use hotels ISPs it tend to not work.
I can always connect to the website via the browser, cmd prompt, etc
The exact error I get when I get it is:
"
"Cannot connect to roadtrucker.com. Check the server name and proxy settings. If the settings are correct, the server may be temporarily unavailable."
"
I do not think it is a DNS issue because I used the host file and it still fails when I travel.
If anyone can shed some light on this, it woudl be very much apprecited.
