I try to watch NBC rewind and it says connection error.?

Question

This happened before on my laptop and I cannot get it to play any of the newer shows. I never fixed the problem and watched it on my other computer. Now the same problem is happening on this computer 3 months later. It just plays the NBC logo and then trys to connect and says can't retrieve the video. Why would it do this on one computer but not the other and then suddenly do it to the other. Thanks

Answer 1

This maybe a problem at NBC's end...or your ISP is denying access to that server

do this...once media player gives you an err...it should also tell you the location of the media file it is trying retrieve...copy that location and try to ping the server...

so lets say the url is
wwww.mygame.nbcgames.com/crap?=bs+i+am+crazywhateverwhatever

then try this...goto run...type cmd...then type..
ping nbcgames.com

if the ping doesnt give any error then its most probably your ISP posing issues
