AI Thread Summary
Users are experiencing issues with being redirected to mobile versions of pages despite using a broadband connection. The problem could stem from browser settings or add-ons that inadvertently trigger mobile site loading. Some users have also reported difficulties posting on forums, particularly with error messages related to security tokens. The discussion suggests checking browser modes and settings as potential solutions. Overall, the issue appears to be intermittent and may not be directly linked to the system itself.

few minutes ago I clicked on a post and when the page loaded it was a PF mobile page ... i then refreshed it and it became a normal page...
This has happened to me quite a number of times..

So is this a problem in the system or is it just something wrong in my connection?

How are you connecting to the internet?

If you are connecting via a mobile internet dongle then it will see you as on a mobile.

There could be many issues.

What browser are you using?
 
firefox, sometimes chrome
 
On my phone, I have an option to use mobile versions or standard web pages. I wondering if you have a setting/addon which is creating a glitch so it looks like you want the mobile version. Not sure. Shall Google it.

I did type in the move, and a vbulletin message appeared: 'your submission couldn't be processed because a security token was missing. If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you preformed before you received this error.'
