Is anyone else with Namecheap having issues with their URL's forwarding? I keep getting Connect failed: Too many connections

From tech support
We are currently experiencing an issue with our default nameservers, our engineers are working on this and it should be fixed shortly.

We highly apologize for any troubles and inconveniences this may have caused you, and thank you for your patience and understanding.

Does this happen often? I have been reading that it has happened on a regular basis.. This is the first time I have noticed myself.

since these are free dns servers we use, they might be overloaded.
i advise you to switch to the other set of free dns -> click on domain name and find "Switch to DNS system V1" (or V2, depends on what you use now). It helps sometimes.

Nor with Name.Com

One more reason to go with a registrar that isn't a reseller for enom. ;)

Hope it gets resolved soon for you.

today reseller, tomorrow - independent registrar. also how is their being enom's resellers influences this issue? namecheap use their own nameservers for free services and since they stopped using enom's as default ones personally i never had a single issue with them. i don't the the point of moving, love their support, prices and services.
