This has happened me 2nd times this week: I cannot load Overleaf while:

  • Pages which check availability like http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/, http://currentlydown.com … (I tried like 4 of them ) says that the page is not down.
  • Other pages (Google, Facebook, Stack Overflow, Wikipedia…) are working fine.
  • I tried other browsers, restarting browsers, restarting the computer but the problem is still the same.
  • I tried load the page on a colleague’s computer but it’s also not loading.

Could it be e.g.:

  • Related to country (EU, Czech Republic)
  • Related to the institution I am getting Internet connectivity from (possibly due to some mirror/proxy … I don’t think I use proxy - none is set in the web browser)

  • What is the error you receive when the page fails to load?

  • "This has happened me 2nd times this week" - This indicates its not a server problem, and not because of firewall filtering, but because of a DNS problem.

It could be related to your DNS. Why don't you try using another server? Google's are:

8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

If that works, you can change it permanently, though how you do that depends on which OS you're using.

Here's another, OpenDNS.
