Since each time you access it it will take a slightly different path, that's where the time factor comes in. After a couple of days it'll work smoothly for good.

And yes, it works fine for me again.

It was up for me immediately after posting this topic, and now its down again. Does the settling of DNS settings typically cause intermittent errors like that, or do they usually stay consistently available once it makes the connection?

If it's any consolation, it worked immediately for me in Vancouver on a slow connection.

I then allowed a day for the DNS settings to take effect. Since then, I have been able to access my blog off and on. It will work for a while, and then I will either get a 404 error, or a redirect loop error. After a few hours, this problem will go away, only to come back randomly at a later period in time.

I have tried to figure this out, but to no avail. My settings seem correct, and I am not savvy enough to diagnose and rectify the situation. I would appreciate your help. Thanks.
