I got an 502 error message, what should i do?

Es gibt zwei Arten von 502-Fehlern.

Typ 1: 502 Authentifizierungsfehler

Meistens bedeutet dieser Fehler, dass der eingegebene Benutzername bzw. das eingegebene Passwort ist falsch. Er kann aber auch bedeuten, dass Ihr Konto jetzt inaktiv ist und dass Sie es wieder aktivieren müssen (indem Sie Ihr Abo verlängern).

Schauen Sie in Ihrem Nutzerprofil nach, ob Ihr Konto noch aktiv ist. Wenn es tatsächlich aktiv ist, liegt das Problem höchstwahrscheinlich an einem falschen Benutzernamen bzw. Passwort. Starten Sie die SneINL-Software und überprüfen Sie die Logindaten.

Ihr Benutzername:

Ihr Benutzername ist die Mailadresse, die Sie beim Anlegen des Kontos angegeben haben, nut mit einem Unterstrich ( _ ) statt @

Ihr Passwort:

Wenn Sie Ihr Passwort vergessen haben, können Sie ein neues Passwort beantragen.
Das neue Passwort wird per Mail zugeschickt.
Beachten Sie, dass die Aktivierung Ihres neuen Passworts ca. 2 Minuten dauern wird.

Typ 2: 502 Zu viele Verbindungen or 502 Zugriff verweigert (Verbindungslimit erreicht)

Diese Fehler bedeuten, dass Sie zu viele Verbindungen verwenden. Um das Problem zu beheben, öffnen Sie die Einstellungen der SneINL-App und geben Sie die richtige Verbindungsanzahl ein:

Langsames Konto: max. 4 Verbindungen.
Basic-Kontot: max. 8 Verbindungen.
Schnelles Konto: max. 12 Verbindungen.

How do I upgrade my subscription to a faster account?

You can always upgrade to a faster account. Go to your account page and press "Upgrade" under the blue Extend button.

How the conversion works:

From a 'Slow' to a 'Basic' subscription; current term times 0.6 plus the new term.
From a 'Slow' to a 'Fast' subscription; the current term times 0.5 plus the new term.
From a 'Basic' to a 'Fast' subscription; the current term times 0.8 plus the new term.

Conversion example:

If you currently have 25 days remaining for your 'Slow’ subscription term, but you'd like to convert to a 30 day 'Basic' subscription. The conversion will work as follows: The remaining 25 days of your 'Small' subscription times 0.6 comes to 15 days. Now add those 15 days to your 30 days 'Basic' subscription and you'll get 45 days of 'Basic' subscription.
