Hey, when I try to download tekkit through the windows link on the tekkit page instead of starting a download the browser takes about 10 seconds then brings up the message:"Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to mirror.technicpack.net" I've tried both Chrome and Internet explorer and they both bring up similar messages, anyone know what's up?

Hm. If Chrome has a problem, it isn't surprising that Internet Exploder does too, IE is crap. Try firefox? try clearing your cache?

Yeah I've now tried firefox and cleared my cache and on all the browsers it keeps bringing up a similar message saying either it can't connect or that it has timed out

Okay, in case you guys didn't see the other thread, I tried to recreate your problem, but it worked fine for me. I have no idea what's up with your stuff, but it's probably not something that's wrong on the technic teams end.

I'm experiencing this as well. All browsers time out when trying to download, the rest of the site works fine. Had a friend send me the file (his download works no problem) and I'm unable to get past the 'Technic Launcher' splash when I open TechnicLauncher-0.2.exe. No idea if they're connected, it's stumped me.

Downloading from Github has worked! and after waiting a few minutes I got past the splash screen so maybe just be a little more patient? Thanks for the help guys!

What happens when you run this from cmd:

ping mirror.technicpack.net

Trying to figure out why a tiny amount of people cant seem to access the mirror server. The only things i can suggest are pausing various firewall programs to see if you can get through or maybe even some p2p peer blockers.. its hard to say.

I've just tried with that link for you and that also doesn't work and I've also tried with no firewall running and that hasn't made a difference either

He was asking you to opne "cmd.exe" and type in that text. He's looking for the console readout.

On windows, go to Start, and put CMD in the searchbar.
