The ELR server is taking naps tonight. Lots of page load failures.
Several pings show 25% packet loss, 100 to 150 ms response times.
Other server pings and net diagnostics show no errors from my end. I’m on broadband at 80 mbps.
The rest of the net is running fine.
Thanks, helps to know some are OK, some not. Here’s me, compared to Google
Tracing route to e-liquid-recipes.com [95.85.24.224]

Your problem is on Telia.
Clearly evident between hops 8 (where it’s good), 9 (where it starts to drag it’s feet a little), and 10, where things start going haywire.
Going to assume here that it’s Chicago, New York, and London respectively.
This morning (11:30am to 12:45 am USA CST) the ELR site is responding very fast for me. Yet the tracert still shows delays through “telia”.
Google “telia” shows it is the Sweden phone company and backbone. Also shows a long history of problems dating back to 2010.
So I ran tracert on 6 random sites from my bookmarks. Some went through telia, some not. Those that did had only 2 hops via telia, both hops OK. So, looks like a random issue and nothing can be done about it. Google shows many people asking how to route around telia and being told not possible.
Precisely. There’s no routing around things usually unless you’re on a VPN, but even then… You’re still at the mercy of the routing, backbones, DNS outages, random traffic, time of day traffic (folks streaming Netflix, Hulu, Etc at dinner), and then factor in the random spam, botnets, DDOS attacks that eat bandwidth (even if they don’t target your point of interest website)… Etc etc =(
