I think it’s due to you don’t have an .HTML file in your website. Upload an HTML example file and test it. InfinityFree has protected her Content Delivery Network. ---

It isn’t that; now the IPs are down so they’re probably doing some maintenance on the servers. ---

It was working before, my website was active at least 15 hours ago before i went to sleep. i did have all the files in the right place. IP’s have to be down, it is not my files that are the problem. ---

It’ll be back when the maintenance is over, maybe a few days. In the meanwhile, you can move your website to a different hosting account (or a new one) that doesn’t have this issue. ---

These two guides can be helpful: > [@How to backup your website](https://forum.infinityfree.com/docs?topic=49304): > > Good website administration requires making backups of your account regularly and storing them somewhere safe yourself. You also need to download backups in order to migrate website to other hosting accounts. InfinityFree does not create or store any backups of free hosting accounts.

You’re assuming this issue affects only InfinityFree. I’m not entirely sure if only IF accounts are on these IP addresses; and since as you mentioned all iFastNet-powered hosts use the same infrastructure, it is likely that accounts from other hosts are also on these IP addresses, and those that are will also be down. InfinityFree does not have control over situations like these; iFastNet does and is essentially responsible for them. ---

Yes, we are aware. You had mentioned this at the beginning of the topic; and as the post mentioned, you are on one of the IPs described in the post, so facing the issues is expected. [Next page](https://forum.infinityfree.com/t/conversation-about-the-current-outage-aug-16-19-23/80946.md?page=2)
