Can't open a file online. "Could not communicate" error.

Hello, Is anybody can tell me why I am getting a message "Could not communicate with https://applications.brightmls.com" when trying to open a file?

Hey Greg56, let's jump right into this! 

 

Does this happen with a specific file, or multiple ones? 

 

Have you tried switching a browser by any chance, just to observe if you get the same results there? 

 

If you get the same error, would you mind sending over a screenshot, in order for us to have a visual too? 

 

Waiting for your updates!
