Hi mnhq
Been having problems with mn this morning, it is horrendously slow and then I keep getting this error message as well
Not sure if it is just me
I am on iPad safari using desktop (because I cannot access the mobile site)

Desktop/chrome issues here too. It's been very slow for a couple of days and sometimes won't load at all.

CassandraCross · 20/02/2021 12:57

It's getting worse.

AaronPurr · 20/02/2021 12:57

It's getting worse, it's almost unusable at this point.

‘SSL Handshake fail’ error that time!

LIZS · 20/02/2021 12:47

Did site just crash, neither desktop nor ios app loaded.

itsgettingwierd · 20/02/2021 12:40

I came back as happening again but see MNHq on it - thanks

DianaT1969 · 20/02/2021 12:39

The app has been awful on Android for days. I uninstalled and reinstalled. I may actually get some housework done today because it's too painful to scroll through 😃

CassandraCross · 20/02/2021 12:38

Same problems here, a snail could move faster than connecting to MN at the moment.

Slow, slow, slow then the error message as in the OP's opening post.

Desktop, Google Chrome.

Only happening with MN, every other site I log on to is pretty much instantaneous.

FlatEarthling · 20/02/2021 12:37

I'm using the Talk app on IPad. It's still really slow loading pages, if it loads them at all.

Myheadmyheart · 20/02/2021 12:35

Yes about to give up here.

AndreaMartelsCoat · 20/02/2021 12:28

@MNHQ please sort it. The weather's rubbish, I'm sick of the tv and MN playing up could be the straw that breaks the camels back today Blush

LIZS · 20/02/2021 12:27

@Jocasta2018

Same here in the App on iPhone XS iOS 14.4. Have tried it on WiFi & mobile data & have even rebooted, logged off WiFi but it still loads slow or tells me I'm not connected to the internet....
Same here.

Thanks for letting us know that there are still some issues here.

We're looking into this as a matter of urgency and will be back with an update as soon as we can.

Thanks for your patience.

dementedpixie · 20/02/2021 12:26

Yes, it's just mumsnet that I'm having issues with

dementedpixie · 20/02/2021 12:25

Sort* ffs

AaronPurr · 20/02/2021 12:25

Is everyone else finding it's just MN that's having problems?

sickofthisyear · 20/02/2021 12:24

Same here. Just updated app on iPhone in case it was that but it's still slow/failing to load. 😧

dementedpixie · 20/02/2021 12:24

Sorry your SSL handshake out!

MN very slow and keep getting this error message
BobbinThreadbare123 · 20/02/2021 12:23

I'm having the same issues. Been like this for days now. Timing out etc. I'm on an Android phone using Chrome.

SparkysMagicPiano · 20/02/2021 12:07

Same problem here today.
Using Chrome on a laptop.

merrymim · 20/02/2021 11:57

Been getting the error this morning, too.

The troubleshooting link says this if I click it -

Error 525: SSL handshake failed

525 errors are often caused by a configuration issue on the origin web server. Error 525 occurs when these two conditions are true: the SSL handshake fails between Cloudflare and the origin web server, and Full or Full (Strict) SSL is set in the Overview tab of your Cloudflare SSL/TLS app.

Resolution

Contact your hosting provider to exclude the following common causes at your origin web server:

No valid SSL certificate installed
Port 443 (or other custom secure port) is not open
No SNI support
The cipher suites accepted by Cloudflare does not match the cipher suites supported by the origin web server

If 525 errors occur intermittently, review the origin web server error logs to determine the cause. Configure Apache to log mod_ssl errors. Also, nginx includes SSL errors in its standard error log, but may possibly require an increased log level.

AaronPurr · 20/02/2021 11:55

Oww I spoke too soon. The error messages are back. 🤦‍♀️

AaronPurr · 20/02/2021 11:48

Seems to be working ok now, although some threads seem to be taking a while to load. Only seems to be MN where i'm having problems.

Jocasta2018 · 20/02/2021 11:44
