Didn't help either. Keep the suggestions coming though; I'd like to figure this out as OGS is by far my favorite server. According to some reading I've done, different firewalls from virus protection programs can sometimes be installed incorrectly and cause certain sites, namely servers, to not load properly so I'm looking into this.

Can you start by figuring out whether the problem is at your endpoint, in your network, or with OGS?

1) Can you login from a different computer/smartphone outside your network?
2) Can you login using your computer (or usual device) from a different network?
3) Can a different device login using your network?

(answers to some of these questions already help)

after meeting with matburt and anoek at the Go Congress on Friday (or Saturday), I tried logging in for the very first time and was having trouble -- it was so slow, I thought it wasn't working at all and had given up... but once was distracted, and when I came back, i was in.
