Not working for me either, maybe they let their TechConnect contract lapse.

Must be on your end. I can access the sites.

Working for me, I wonder if it's an international problem, since me and I assume Operaghost are in the US and the people who can't access it are outside the USA

rockwellautomation.com works, but not ab.com. weird.

As of 12:20 Pacific Time, ab.com redirects successfully to https://www.rockwellautomation.com/en-us/products/hardware/allen-bradley.html from my vantage point near Seattle.
Might have been a DNS or server problem.

C'mon - you know Washington is already writing a teleprompter on how this is Putin's fault.
Only could have been Russian hackers, not some fresh out of college IT guy unplugging the blue fiber optic cable.

ab.com was not working for me yesterday (6/30), but rockwellautomation.com was. Today I am getting the same result. I am in Michigan.

You have to type www.ab.com and it goes to Rockwell.com.
Must have shut down the AB server and only redirected the full address, not all versions.

A good reason to a company is every redirect registration is another $50 a year, and at that rate would have to sell 0.00025 more PLCs a year to cover it. Or raise the price of each TechConnect contract $150 to each customer.
