I prefer using the Firefox browser. Trying to access the forum at https://surveyorconnect.com/community/ is showing a web page with the following message:
Checking your browser before accessing surveyorconnect.com.

Please allow up to 5 seconds??

The message says to allow up to 5?ÿ seconds, but after a couple of minutes, no change. I had got this message a few weeks ago. At that time, I just waited a few hours before trying to access the forums, and by then the issue went away. I am currently logged in using Chrome. Both browsers have the latest updates, and I am on a Win10 computer. Also, I cleared the Firefox Cache with no effect.
Wait, what's the question?
I'm here via Firefox, with no warnings or errors
@jph I just checked again, Firefox is now accessing the site. I guess the question is if Wendell is using the Cloudflare service? If not, then something hinky is going on, as I'm pretty sure my company does not use that service, and this message has so far only popped up (and "locked up") when I try to access this forum through Firefox.
Yes, CloudFlare is used to help speed up and protect SurveyorConnect. You shouldn't see that message often, but sometimes it will happen if it suspects a potential problem.
