If Gnu is down for everyone:

If it's only down for you:
- Clear browser cache
- Try another browser or device
- Restart router
- Flush DNS cache
- Try mobile data instead of WiFi
- Disable VPN/proxy
If gnu.org is not opening for you, refresh the page, try another browser or private window, clear DNS cache, disable VPN/proxy temporarily and test from a different network. If the status is DOWN, wait before repeated login or payment attempts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q:How do I know if Gnu is down?
Check the live status, HTTP code and response time at the top of this page. If Gnu is down across multiple networks and user reports increase, the issue is more likely widespread.
Q:Is Gnu down for everyone or just me?
If this checker shows UP but you still cannot access gnu.org, the issue may be local to your device, browser, DNS, ISP, VPN or region. If it shows DOWN, it may affect more users.
Q:What should I do if Gnu is not working?
Refresh the page, test another browser, restart your router, clear DNS cache and try a different network. For widespread issues, wait and check official channels.
