So, I am sitting in my office with four computers on the same network and internet connection.

Two of the computers can visit this particular website. Two of the computer get a message "Google Chrome could not find". I have tried FF and IE also with the same problem.

I can view the site 90% of the time on two of the working computers although the site seems slow and sometimes I also get the same errors as the other two computers.

I have flushed the DNS, reset the router, tested the site on other peoples computers with success.

Is this likely to be a site issue, an ISP issue, a hosting issue?

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Here is the ping from the working machine:
