This may be a bug I encounter from time to time. go into usercp/edit options and change your posts per page setting to a lower number and try again (assuming it isnt on the lowest). After it's displayed properly you should be able to change it back :)

Is it taking you to the last post you read? That happens to me.
Edit: I just doubled checked and it is taking me to whatever thread was posted at about 4PM. Only to earlier if nothing was posted after 4PM today. That's about the time I got on this afternoon.

takes me to this post which is around the time I went off line this morning. (It's 12:57PM here at the moment).

after viewing the next page in the thread, and closing that tab, I came back here and clicked on the link and I now get this post which at the time of this screen shot was the last one posted in the thread:

So if there is a problem with the forum it is not universal....

just to be sure, I've just tried it again on my way home from work and get the following. which is the first new post after the one I had previously read. edit: I'm using firefox on Windows XP. at lunch I was on the work network and on the way home I'm using my 3G modem.

All the pages on the diyAudio forum are dynamic, except for the front page when a user is not logged in. We do use mod_pagespeed to speed things up which does some caching, but it should not cause the problem you've described. I would suggest it was your ISP, but as you've tried several different ones with the same problem, I'm not sure what to suggest.

When you tried from work, was it using the same laptop or an entirely different computer?

I have the same problem both at work and home. I never get the current post, I haven't really been paying attention to which post I see, but I believe it is the last one I looked at on a given thread or the very next one.

ISPs are different at home and work. My home ISP is Verizon, work I believe is Comcast. Different computers.

Common thread is Firefox and Windows 7. I can't recollect that I have this problem on a linux box with firefox, but will update next time I am on that machine.
 
I use firefox on linux boxes. But I don't believe it redraws URLs, it is something else on the way. May be hosting provider uses some proxy?

Let's check...
