IP address blocked!

[Devonlass15]

Really need to send message but a message is coming up to contact administrators regarding IP address issues!

Could you let me know what the prob is, thanks!

[Administrator]

Please could someone take a screen shot of the message they see and attach it to a post so I can see it.

Mine's sporadic today again, too. I posted this morning and then went back to reply to a response, but when I hit Post Message nothing happened.

I have no idea if this will get through...

Yep same here fox. Have had to use a proxy IP to get connected. Same other issues last week for me too. Could it be cloudfare? seems to have been a problem since that was added.

[DulwichFox]

Don't want to complicate things

But would like to know if all

Those having problems are with BT

[Michael Palaeologus]

Yup!

[Blah Blah]

Yep BT here too. And my connection is fine now.

I'm blocked again - this time it wouldn't even let me onto the site. (Last time it just wouldn't let me send messages). I will send you a private message with the IP address.

Thanks Katy

[DulwichFox]

Done a bit of digging.

I think there may me an issue

With BT and CloudFlare

Difficult to say

What issue did you find Dulwich Fox?

[DulwichFox]

There seems to of been

Some DNS issues at BT concerning cloudfare and

Blocked access to other forums

. However they are historic 2011

but if all affected users are BT

Its a starting point

I just got the same banned message as Fox, quoting exactly the same IP address, which also isn't mine. I wasn't trying to post, just read the forum but I was completely blocked. I closed the forum page and then went back in and it was fine. Have no idea if this post will go through.

[siousxiesue]

Got blocked, now I'm in but some links are leading to a blocked page! I've contacted admin

Photo of error 1006 message i am also with BT

[Siduhe]

Same here. Also have BT as my broadband provider. Here is the screen I get...

[DulwichFox]

I ping'd the quoted IP

and it timed out.

Did a tracert from CMD console

And it goes to a BT server

[melbourne groover]

Same message for me, am also with BT.

[lilolil]

I just had this too. Came off BT wifi and logged back in and now its ok.

[DulwichFox]

A tracert to the EDF domain

needs to be done To establish

At what stage access fails.

IM out at the mo but will try.tomorow

Or admin can try .

From console window.

Type tracert www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk

[Administrator]

As I said before it does seem to be an issue with BT users, for some reason systems (both the forum's own and cloud flare) wants to block people from BT.

Dulwich Fox, again thanks for trying to help but you're confusing the issue with talk of "a tracert needs to be done". Random trace routes won't help and it's pointless me doing one.
