Some clients are experiencing trouble accessing their Feng Office system and Feng Office webpage.
 
Our DNS provider (Bluehost.com, the registar to whom we bought the fengoffice.com Domain) is having issues within their servers which unfortunately are affecting us.
 
However, good news are that you may still access your data if you apply the following changes:

If you are a Windows user

 
1- Go to the Windows File Explorer (you may do this by pressing Windows key + E key at the same time)
 
2- Now go to the following folders: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\
 
3- Access to the file named hosts using the Notepad or any other text edit application
 
4- Copy and paste the following lines in the end of the file:
 
74.208.123.225 fengoffice.com
74.208.123.225 u2.fengoffice.com
74.208.113.239 u1.fengoffice.com
198.251.76.46 u3.fengoffice.com

For Mac users

 
1- Open a Terminal
Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal.
 
2- Open the hosts by typing on the Terminal that you have just opened:
 
$ sudo vi /private/etc/hosts
 
Type your user password when prompted.
