I went back to record the stuff I was seeing, and it didn't happen this time.

Does anyone else have trouble downloading the source from this tip:
WPF with PRISM - View and ViewModel First Implementation with Unity IoC
Packets come in fits and starts for me, stopping entirely just under halfway through.
Oddly, downloads from other tips/articles download just fine. It's only this one that's giving me trouble.
Thanks,

That one has all the makings of a great story, and it's an enjoyable read, but alas the problem persists. An important clue is found in the fact that other CP downloads go off without a hitch. It's only this one that's giving a problem.
I was able yesterday to get the file via a different ISP's network and then transfer it from my friend's computer to mine. But even then the download was slow and erratic.
Also: I can't connect to the CP web server at all via another network that's owned by my ISP. The main landing page doesn't even load, and the connection attempt times out.
So there's something strange going on here. I don't know how to reach someone at CP to discuss this, if it's possible.

Matthew Dennis originally replied to your post. You can "summon" someone by prefixing a "@" to their username (you'll see this string in their profile if you click on their name).
So if you reply to this message and include "@" in the message, followed by "matthew-dennis", he'll be told that he was mentioned in a post and will come running to see what the fuss is about.

Perfect, thanks!
I like your bit of hedgehog wisdom. I'm going to impart it on my neighbor

Hey Jeff,
Can you trying doing a tracert www.codeproject.com to see where the bottleneck is? (only worry about the nodes up until peer1. Everything after that will timeout on purpose)
cheers

Trace complete.
This is from my ISP's network that can reach your server but can't download the file. I called them to discuss their other network that can't reach your server at all, and the tech asked me to bypass the WatchGuard router there, temporarily plug a laptop directly into their switch and manually assign an IP from the range they've allocated. If after that I still can't connect, he suggested the possibility that you may be blocking a range of IPs that includes their range.
Do you have a way to check on this?
In any case, I won't be able to make it over there for such a test for another day or so.

We can't test anything downstream. My guess: someone or something is blocking us.
Do you have any ad blockers installed (or uBlock?) They play absolute havoc with sites.

Sure, I understand. But if your network admins were intentionally blocking an IP range—for whatever reason—wouldn't you be able to find that out?
My network: I use ABP, but I turned it off for CP. Same result (the download starts fine but then incoming packets halt at about 10% complete). I don't use an ad blocker at the other network.
This is really odd, because page loads are just fine. I can download files from other articles lickety-split. It's just this one file from this one article.

p.s. Not sure what you mean by downstream in this context.

Sorry: I meant anything outside of our systems we can't test. We can ping / tracert from us to your ISP but that probably won't tell us much. Sounds like there's a block in there somewhere

Yes, you're correct. Our WatchGuard firewall appliance was incorrectly blocking the site. Thanks to @jeron1 for assisting with that.
Download attempts for the article's source code are still timing out, though. It starts off like a bull, traffic slows down to fits and starts for a bit, and then everything goes quiet.

Interesting...within the last week CodeProject is blocked at work by the WatchGuard router, they claim that it is being detected as a botnet. I'll have to work on the boss to make the exception.

 We'll ask our IT guys to dig in and see who they need to slap to get this sorted.

I'm not sure what happened, I've used this site for years at work, then all of the sudden nothing but connection timeouts... Maybe a WatchGuard update botched things up, the fact that someone else had a similar issue seems too coincidental.

This was exactly the issue. I'm not sure why I didn't think to check for it, so your suggestion was very timely.
I added an exception for *.codeproject.com and all was well.

That's discutible   
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

The link is now inside the code blocks (I have a feeling it used to be above), with the result that any copied block includes the "Copy Code" text at the beginning.
int main()
{
printf("Hello, world!\n");
}
