This started yesterday and is an intermittent issue since.  I was able to finally log in around noon yesterday after 2+ hours of trying various solutions.  Was able to log in this morning for about 2.5 hours and now I've been kicked off again with the message the server cannot be found.  This happens across all three browsers I use, firefox, chrome, and edge as well as a laptop on wifi and a hardwired desktop computer.  I suspect it has something to do with the security certificate Procentive is using being out of date or not secure.
