Download links are down for half of the nexus?

Yes,

The only thing that does not work right now for me is "Seattle, USA" which directs to fs3.nexusmods.com and gives a DNS lookup failed error.

fs5.nexusmods.com (London, UK) seems to give the same error.

fs4.nexusmods.com (Dallas, USA) & fs2.nexusmods.com (Washington DC, USA) seem to be OK.

 

As I have already stated here: http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1338923-skyrimnexus-down-for-maintenance/

 

It should work tomorrow I'd assume.

 

Or try this as a temp fix:

The domain name has changed and your ISP is yet to catch up with the DNS, try this... http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using.html

I'm having issues with this, but only with files below a certain file size. A server will be automatically picked for me, and it's inevitably the one that is down right now. Is there any way to disable the site automatically choosing a server, so I can pick one that works? Or will I just have to wait it out?

For a quick fix, try right clicking on the download link and selecting "open link in new tab". It should eventually route you to an address starting with fs3.nexusmods.com, and if you change that to either fs4.nexusmods.com or fs2.nexusmods.com, it works just fine.

 

EDIT: You can also change your file download method under preferences, from the default on-page pop-up box to opening in a separate page, and then use the same method of changing the address, but it's pretty easy either way.

I was using Open DNS too so I changed back to my ISP: Time Warner's local DNS, flushed my cache and I still can't download anything, both public and premium servers. I gave Google DNS a try to, same thing. I get "File does not exist" message for everything I try to download. Oh well, I'll give this another day or two.

 

Edit: "Download with Manager" links seem to work for me, but downloads are very slow, I get under 500kb/s in NMM. I hate to say it but my problems started yesterday right after signing up for a premium account. Immediately after that I was unable to download anything.

 

I was able to download mods even yesterday morning, so it doesn't look like DNS problem in my case.
