    Does anyone else have trouble downloading the source from this tip: [WPF with PRISM - View and ViewModel First Implementation with Unity IoC](https://www.codeproject.com/Tips/5294830/WPF-with-PRISM-View-and-ViewModel-First-Implementa) Packets come in fits and starts for me, stopping entirely just under halfway through. Oddly, downloads from other tips/articles download just fine. It's only this one that's giving me trouble. Thanks, Jeff Bowman Fairbanks, Alaska

            That one has all the makings of a great story, and it's an enjoyable read, but alas the problem persists. An important clue is found in the fact that other CP downloads go off without a hitch. It's only this one that's giving a problem. I was able yesterday to get the file via a different ISP's network and then transfer it from my friend's computer to mine. But even then the download was slow and erratic. Also: I can't connect to the CP web server at all via another network that's owned by my ISP. The main landing page doesn't even load, and the connection attempt times out. So there's something strange going on here. I don't know how to reach someone at CP to discuss this, if it's possible. Thanks, Jeff Bowman Fairbanks, Alaska

              Matthew Dennis originally replied to your post. You can "summon" someone by prefixing a "@" to their username (you'll see this string in their profile if you click on their name). So if you reply to this message and include "@" in the message, followed by "matthew-dennis", he'll be told that he was mentioned in a post and will come running to see what the fuss is about. :)

                  That's discutible :rolleyes: ;P :laugh:

                  M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                        We can't test anything downstream. My guess: someone or something is blocking us. Do you have any ad blockers installed (or uBlock?) They play absolute havoc with sites.

                          Sure, I understand. But if your network admins were intentionally blocking an IP range—for whatever reason—wouldn't you be able to find that out? My network: I use ABP, but I turned it off for CP. Same result (the download starts fine but then incoming packets halt at about 10% complete). I don't use an ad blocker at the other network. This is really odd, because page loads are just fine. I can download files from other articles lickety-split. It's just this one file from this one article. Thanks, Jeff Bowman Fairbanks, Alaska

                            We can't test anything downstream. My guess: someone or something is blocking us. Do you have any ad blockers installed (or uBlock?) They play absolute havoc with sites.

I called them to discuss their other network that can't reach your server at all, and the tech asked me to bypass the WatchGuard router there, temporarily plug a laptop directly into their switch and manually assign an IP from the range they've allocated. If after that I still can't connect, he suggested the possibility that you may be blocking a range of IPs that includes their range. Do you

                                Sorry: I meant anything outside of our systems we can't test. We can ping / tracert from us to your ISP but that probably won't tell us much. Sounds like there's a block in there somewhere

                                    Yes, you're correct. Our WatchGuard firewall appliance was incorrectly blocking the site. Thanks to @jeron1 for assisting with that. Download attempts for the article's source code are still timing out, though. It starts off like a bull, traffic slows down to fits and starts for a bit, and then everything goes quiet. Thanks, Jeff Bowman Fairbanks, Alaska

                                      This was exactly the issue. I'm not sure why I didn't think to check for it, so your suggestion was very timely. I added an exception for `*.codeproject.com` and all was well. Thanks, Jeff Bowman Fairbanks, Alaska

                                          I'm not sure what happened, I've used this site for years at work, then all of the sudden nothing but connection timeouts... Maybe a WatchGuard update botched things up, the fact that someone else had a similar issue seems too coincidental.
