Google drive not working - ETA on fix???

Is there an ETA on fixing issues accessing Google drive? 

  • Good morning joemarocco,

     

    Have you seen a difference yet with Google Drive?

    They will let us know when they've found a way to fix this.  If they haven't posted anything, it means they're still working on it.

      I'm still having issues with Drive and all Google Apps, it's dramatically impacting my ability to work. Additionally, we're unable to stream any video from our Roku TV, specifically Netflix & Amazon Prime. We still have anytime data available, so It seems to me there is some system wide throttling on certian apps.

        • Many of us are having issues with those sites
        • It's a known problem, HN is aware of it
        • HN is working to figure out the cause, but the cause may be external to them
        • Streaming is very difficult these days due to the pandemic crisis affecting our country,and so many people working and learning from home and straining the system to capcity
        • Things are probably not going to get better any time soon
        • The issues are much more noticeable by satellite internet users, but they are affecting everyone
        • Best thing about streaming at the moment is to avoid it
