The New York Times status — frequently asked

Is The New York Times down right now?

The New York Times is up and responding in 224 ms. That reading is from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, 2 minutes ago.

Is it The New York Times that's down, or is it my internet connection?

It can be either — that's the hard part. The status on this page is measured from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, so The New York Times can look healthy here while your own connection is the real problem. The itsnotyou test checks both at once and returns a single verdict in about 10 seconds.

Why is The New York Times loading slowly?

A slow The New York Times usually comes down to one of two things: The New York Times's own servers are responding slowly — itsnotyou measures time to first byte, and anything over 1500 ms is flagged as slow — or your local connection is the bottleneck. Running the test tells the two apart.

How often is The New York Times's status checked?

The New York Times is probed every few minutes, around the clock, from itsnotyou's monitoring servers. The verdict and the 24-hour response-time history on this page update automatically.
