Thanks for the insight. I and a couple friends tried from Germany, but I don't know how that relates.

I appreciate that. I had a couple friends in different cities also check and it wasn't working for them. Just found it strange that all embassy sites we tried were unreachable for about an hour during a prime part of the day.

Not trying to waste time, but found it strange that each embassy's site I tried was down during prime working hours for embassies on 4 different continents. I realize this affects a small percentage of U.S. citizens such as myself who live overseas and use these services.

Thanks. It was also down for my friend across town, who I checked with before posting.

All U.S. Embassy Sites Down EDIT: Site Back

Had to check something and noticed the Frankfurt Consulate and Berlin Embassy sites were down. Checked Tel Aviv and Singapore out of curiosity and they are also down...along with any others. Any insight out there?EDIT: Sites are back, but I found it nevertheless strange for them all to be down over an hour during prime working hours for Europe, Africa, S.America and half of N.America
