• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

my F@H is not wanting to send work packets out.

my internet is fine and not behind a firewall. nothing on my connection has changed. so i am unsure why it is doing this.
 
Can you post a snipit of the FAH log so that we can see what its saying is the problem?
 
IMO, don't worry about it for a week.
Stanford is getting new servers and they should be up within that time.

56 cores + 156TB of space :)

that is the last entry
 
Error 503 means that the server is either too busy or is doing maintenance. Give it a bit and it should pick up a WU. You could also try stoipping the client and restarting it and see if by chance it picks a different server.
