Page Caching?

Hi,

Do you guys use page caching/web acceleration?  I recently switched my website to a new hosting company with of course different nameservers and different ip.  When I go to my website, the old website is still showing up.  I know it must have something to do with hughesnet as when I connect with my phone I go to the "new" one and if I use VPN on my computer I go to the "new" one.  No matter the browser, cache clearing, flushing the dns, etc etc, I always get my old website.

Any ideas from anyone?

Thank you!!

Pete

    Have you tried power cycling the modem?  Doing so should clear its cache.  Unplug it at the outlet or power brick (NOT at the back of the modem), wait at least 30 seconds, then plug it back in.  It will take four or five minutes for the modem to be fully back up.   

     

    If you're using a 3rd party router you should power cycle it, as well.  This will clear its cache.    

     

    HughesNet does use Web Acceleration.  You can toggle it off and on here... http://192.168.0.1/limited.html#!/wac/control

     

    If it is still giving you problems after trying the above things please let us know, as the reps may need to clear the modem's cache remotely, though power cycling it should do so.
