Security Certificate issue accessing Github
I am currently unable to access github.com, due to a claimed security certificate issue, however if I jump on a VPN or if I use mobile data I am able to access Github perfectly fine. This has happened with other sites in the last couple months, for example mega.nz. I was unable to access mega.nz for about a month, but then it just started working again. Same as now, if I jumped on a VPN I could access Mega perfectly fine. I asked friends of mine who also use Virgin Media broadband if they could access it, and they could, so the issue was between my area and destination.
- Using incognito doesn't help
- I've reset my router
- Confirmed I can access the site via other providers (o2 mobile network, Nord VPN)
- Confirmed other Virgin Media Broadband users can access the site
I have Child Safe disabled & Virus Safe disabled in the VM online account.
I would turn off Smart Security in a heart beat.
My choice is no ISP filtering, the problem is exactly what we see today, it does go wrong and stop the job in a totally obscure manner.
We do not use the VM Connect app, i.e. we do not have it installed on our mobiles as it is a well known to tinker with the Hub Wi-Fi settings and now we also see it enables Smart Security which has proved to be yet another point of failure.
