(not robotics related, but not sure where else to get help for this!)
Google no longer allows me to use gmail because:
We can't provide service under the Gmail name in Germany; we're called Google Mail here instead.
If you're traveling in Germany, you can access your mail at http://mail.google.com.
Oh, and we'd like to link the URL above, but we're not allowed to do that either. Bummer.
For general information about Google, please visit www.google.com or www.google.de.
But I live in Thailand . . . I follow that other link, but Gmail just hangs and doesn't allow further access . . .
Doing a trace route, this is what I find (edited):
9 34 ms 31 ms 31 ms 61-91-210-5.static.asianet.co.th [61.91.210.5] (thailand)
10 33 ms 32 ms 31 ms 61.19.10.29 (australia)
11 33 ms 31 ms 31 ms 202.47.253.130 (australia)
12 64 ms 64 ms 63 ms 74.125.50.213 (US)
17 132 ms 132 ms 131 ms jp-in-f102.google.com [66.249.89.102]
So it doesn't route through any country other than Thailand, Australia, and the US.
Googling the problem it appears people in
Texas,
Ohio,
North Carolina,
Switzerland, and
Australia (
2) are having the same problem. Many more . . .
Anyway, until this is solved, this is why I have stopped responding to emails . . .
