Imgur links not working

john smith 14 years ago • updated by Alan Schaaf (Founder) 13 years ago • 4
So no matter what browser i use(Firefox, Chome, IE) imgur picture links do not work at all. I get the "Firefox can't find the server at i.imgur.com." or similar message. The site itself works fine, just the pictures do not.

Resetting router does not work, not really sure what else to do.

It sounds like your computer is having a hard time resolving the i.imgur.com domain. You might want to try changing your DNS settings to use either Google's Public DNS, or Open DNS. More information on that can be found here: http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/

Alan, would the DNS fix also work when imgur loads but pictures do not?
Alan Schaaf (Founder) 14 years ago
Yes, it should. It's a DNS problem for sure.

I'm having this problem and I've been using Google's DNS service for a while.

Kept messing with settings with no luck. Loaded up wireshark to take a look, went to load up imgur.com to check it out and it loaded with no problems... I hate when something fixes itself and I have no idea what happened.
