    Hi

     

    We are aware that after our recent maintenance, some customers may still be having trouble connecting to a remote machine or the remote machine is showing as unavailable. To resolve this issue please follow the steps listed in the below article:

    My host computer is offline or unavailable

    1. Reboot your host computer.
      Note: If you are not physically by your host computer, you will need to find someone who can reboot it for you.
    2. On your client computer, check if the host computer you're trying to access is back online.
      Troubleshooting: It the host computer is still offline, please reinstall GoToMyPC on your client computer.
    3. Check your computer's status again and try connecting.

    My host computer is available but the connection is failing

    1. Log in to your account at https://www.gotomypc.com/members/login.tmpl.
    2. On the My Computers page, find your host computer and select > Restart Computer.
    3. Wait a few minutes for the computer to restart.
    4. Try connecting again.

First of all, I know there was Goto maintenance last night.

 

One of my users tried to log onto GTMPC this morning around 8:20 Eastern and could not. He found the notice from 13:50 UTC that GTMPC was investigating the outage, but now we are seeing that more of our machines are showing up as unavailable, and that several of our users see machines listed as available but cannot get past 'that endless green line of death'.

 

Since the phone support line does not seem to be able to answer our calls right now I would like to know what is going on, especially since your status page claims everything is now okay.

Goto seems to have made all our  machines come online again last night but given that half my users get timeouts from Gotomypc when they try to log in, even after GTMPC service restarts, I'm not impressed.
