"can't find the server at filedelivery.nexusmods.com" w/ manual download

[syzygybeth]

Looked all over and this is my best guess as to where to post this problem.

 

Yesterday, I happily downloaded a bunch of mods using Mod Organizer in order to rebuild my installation. Today, I get an error doing the same thing. I get the same error if I am not using MO, but am downloading manually.

 

Firefox can't find the server at filedelivery.nexusmods.com

 

I can download files from other sites.

I can't download other mods from this site.

So it's not the mod, it's something to do with the site.

The only suggestions I've found involved changing a setting in MO, which isn't applicable.

 

Any suggestions (including a better place to post) are appreciated. Thanks.

Here's what it looks like from a computer that is (at the time of the tracert operation) able to get to it, if it helps:

Okie dokie. I think this is an issue with the CDN right now which they're looking in to. It should automatically resolve itself once they've fixed the issue on their end.

I just tried to manually download again and it worked fine. Nothing had changed on my end since my inital post.

 

Thanks for the help!
