    yeah, it's really frustrating. it goes down all the time for me too, and always at the worst possible time. for such a big book, why not invest in better software?

    Try using Pinny and Cris clones. A lot of PPH's have the same lines and move on their RSS feeds.

    It's their anti-ddos protection, the site isn't down as such. Email em and ask to be whitelisted.

    Since they announced they will be introducing a new software they have done nothing to upgrade and improve. and they won't until they bring out the new stuff

    Never heard of this. When did they say they will come out with new software?

    Pinnacle has always been shaky for me - been using them about 3 years.

    Anti-ddos protection, that's a joke or isn't it?

    I had sometimes this problem even when I didn't used the website the last 10 minutes.

    No, serious. So often I read here of it being down, and it's fine for me.

    Not seen the site down in maybe a year, and I use it all the time.

    The problems exist for more than two month now. Why don't they solve their problems? The longer it takes the more I think they don't want to change anything. They are satisfied with the situation.

    What I have noticed is that even if You update the odds manually once they make the web site unavailable at some point after a while. They promote the Dynamic Lines so much. If I do not update the odds manually I do not face the downtime problem.

    Sorry for bad english but maybe the manual odds update is the issue and they intentionally block You for a while. Share Your experience.

    I think it doesn't make any difference whether you update the odds manually or you use the dynamic lines. The problem with dynamic lines is that you don't realize when the connection is down.

    If you update the lines too often they will block your IP for 5 minutes and then allow you back on.
