Can't connect to this site
« on: December 11, 2011, 08:35:27 AM »
Hello all,
Since a few hours I'm having issues with connecting to this site and a few sites hosted on this site. The weird thing is that other people can still connect, but I can only connect with a proxy. I tried several things, like setting a mtu number, rebooting, clearing the cache and trying another browser, but it still doesn't work. I'm using Ubuntu 11.10. Does anyone have an idea?

Regards and thanks in advance,
Tah Zonemaster

Have you tried to check if your IP is blocked by any anti-spam provider?
Maybe you should marry that thing since you love it so much. Do you want to marry it? WELL I WON'T LET YOU! How does that feel?
That thing is probably some sort of raw sewage container. Go ahead and rub your face all over it.

Checked, no results. ;) The weird thing is, I can connect to some sites without a proxy, but it doesn't work for pctweakr :(

I think BigGuy is using CloudFlare here. If so, likely that is the problem.

You can also check a couple of honey pots and see if your IP is listed there:

Thanks for your reply (Yoshi thanks for your reply too btw :)), but I dunno. It worked fine for me this morning, but now it doesn't anymore. :( I've searched on google several times, but nothing helped.

Sorry for bumping, but just tested on windows. It doesn't work on windows either

Are you behind a firewall/router or on a wireless connection?

You mean if I have firewall enabled? Not on ubuntu, but I have on windows. Still wondering why it worked before while it doesn't now :(
Ps: searched for my ip on project honeypot and sfs and I'm not getting any results (luckily), but there are some very close to my ip. It's weird though, because I don't even see a page, just a "Connection timed out" page.

It could be cloudfare. I will check it out later today and get things cleared up. :)

I will change the nameservers back and see what happens then. Pretty sure it's cloudfare. We are not using them anyway any more.

Cloud flare is only used on SMFHelper, looks like you got banned in the firewall.
What is your IP range I'll have a look

The weird thing is, I cán connect to SMFhelper, so I dunno. I'll send you both a pm with my IP range, if you don't mind. And thanks for taking a look :)

This site was not using cloudfare so it could not have been that.
