I'm in Canada, in Quebec city, and have no problems about the website. Everything is working well.

During the past several weeks, there have been several people here on Stamp Community Family forum report that they have had difficulty with accessing the Stamp Smarter website from outside the United States.

We have been working with our Internet Service Provider (ISP), and to the best of our knowledge, they have corrected these issues, and we are back to full operation.

As our Board is all US based, we can not readily test a situation like this, so we appreciate those who do encounter problems with our Stamp Smarter website, and report them.

Reporting problems can be done is several ways.

(1) You can make a post on this thread at SCF

Please do NOT start a new thread, let's keep the Stamp Smarter problems in one place.

Please do not post general questions about Stamp Smarter in this thread. Let's keep it dedicated to reporting operational problems and announcing the solutions.

(2) You can send me a private message through the SCF private message system.

(3) On our home page, and many other pages on Stamp Smarter, you can go to the CONNECT button at the top, select that, and send us a message from that page.



Regardless of your preferred approach, when you report a problem, please describe the problem in detail.

Where were you on Stamp Smarter, what were you trying to do, what was the result, what sort of error or unexpected result did you obtain? If you can take screen shots of the error or behavior, please do. The more information you can provide, the better will be our ability to provide a speedy resolution.

I want to also thank those of you who reported these recent problems, and those who assisted in testing and verifying the solutions when we asked for assistance.

Our goal is to keep Stamp Smarter fully operational as one of the best independent philatelic websites on the internet.

Works fine in India, although it was covered by some white thing with a loading animation for a few minutes, but then it loaded fine.

the access for the auction software used by Owen Sound Stamp Club, Oxford Stamp Club and North York Stamp Club ~ all located in Ontario can't be accessed by me using Windows 11 and/or Widows 7 systems
the link used to work several months ago was
hhtps://stampsmarter.org/AuctionSQL/Auction_OSC_Entry.php?operation=return
This site used Cascading Style Sheet but it's believed that there is a problem with the website provider ~ is it still functioning? the main site even sourced from APS website link doesn't work ~ it's a problem with ISP

In a recent post, one user in Canada has reported difficulty in reaching Stamp Smarter.

Because we had some issues with our ISP earlier this Spring with non-USA residents accessing Stamp Smarter, I would like a quick verification from any of the Canadian, or other non-USA members of SCF, that they can reach Stamp Smarter.

https://stampsmarter.org/index.html

If you have no issues, just report your country and a "No Problem".

If you encounter an error, please report "I can't access Stamp Smarter", and if possible provide a screen capture of your webpage and the error.

Thanks.

Thank you for responding.

Out of curiosity, who is your Internet Service Provider? Rogers?

Other Canada internet users located in the southwestern Ontario area have reported difficulties with Rogers. I've heard several stories about their unsuccessful efforts to be able to connect to Stamp Smarter and other websites.

The one occasionally successful approach has been to use a VPN.
