Note to moderators:

Every time I try to read ibmmainframes.com/viewtopic.php?t=69047, I get "502 Bad Gateway" error.

Other sites, other posts and other forums work correctly, so I do not think it is a problem on my side.

My post was incorrect. It turns out that several posts, including this thread get the gateway error.

But the failure seems to be when I use the Google Chrome browser. If I use MS Edge browser, it works correctly.

I can view this particular topic in Chrome as well.

This "502 Bad Gateway" I get sometimes, unexpectedly, with various sites. I noticed that at the same time I can view the same sites from other computers, in the same local network.

The best explanation I was able to receive from "network experts" was: "Something is wrong", or "Something else is wrong".
