Hi guys,
happy Plan-G user here and thanks to Tim. Maybe something going wrong with my config: I can't see the default OpenStreetMap from a couple days, while default OpenTop and OpenCycle are ok. Tried to uninstall and reinstall Plan-G with no result. Any idea?
Many thanks,
Max

I think OpenStreetMap are experiencing loading issues at the moment with their servers. It's an inherent problem with free services. Some users are finding their access is blocked, while others aren't. It seems to based on IP addresses, so if your internet provider changes your IP from time to time, that could be why you've suddenly hit a block. It'll probably recover over time as their server load settles down, (or if your IP gets reallocated again), meanwhile all I can really suggest is use a different map provider. (Settings->General)

Ok, thanks Tim. If You have a suggestion for a good map provider, please tell me.

I've found a similar problem with Openstreetmaps, getting a (403) returned.  It seems that OSM is objecting to a refererurl being sent in the http header.

I've found the same issue in my own software which uses Gmap and setting RefererUrl to an empty string fixes the issue.
