Is anyone else having trouble accessing the Asus web site? I've been trying to get the latest update for the Prime, but for the past 24 hours I have not been able to connect to any department of Asus. I've tried using my Prime, a laptop, a desktop, a Xoom and a Nook Color, and nothing will connect; message says the web site is unavailable, or that the server does not respond. Every other web site loads with no problem, it's only this one that will not. I tried re-booting my router, but it didn't help. I can't imagine what the problem can be other than that the site is off line. Can others access Asus?

Asus site down?

Update:
I took my TFP to a nearby restaurant, and connected to their wifi. Lo and behold, my device was able to access Asus, and the update downloaded and installed. The upshot: the problem is not with Asus' servers, but with my router; I don't know how or why, but something is preventing it from connecting to Asus. This is the only site affected as far as I know, but at least I now know where to start looking.
Update 2:
Magically, the Asus web page is back, after my having done nothing to make it happen. I guess their servers were simply overwhelmed by the sheer number of people downloading the update, and now they're recovering. Seems a computer company should have much more robust servers.
