Mark, I can't get to any server either and I am on the east coast. Lost contact at 11:05am est. I can ping some of the hosts so it is not strictly an internet issue. Appears like Datek went way south.

Mark - Same here. All servers are down, non-responsive. freerealtime.com can get you quotes. Called datek at 11:19 - Was told "It will be fixed momentarily." For some reason, I don't believe him. Time to go for coffee or something.

Same problem from Michigan Mark, of course the response from Datek will be "the problem must be with your ISP". Perhaps we can start getting quotes from Datek via the postal service and submit our orders the same way. Keep up the good work DATEK.
