How much content is being ip blocked?
I say this because I pay for content hosting solutions via mega.nz and other platforms, and the only way of now being able to get access to them is by the means of now having to pay for a vpn, or change my dns. This has become a recent issue, I have tried getting access on three different machines, different browsers all using my connection to no avail. I made contact with the providers who assured me that there is no server issues at their end, this was apparent when I gained access via vpn in france. So I can only assume that Virgin has added certain hosts to it websafe block list without informing anyone. Repeatedly tried to phone for confirmation, from the tech services and was met with indifference and more pushy sales garbage than a street seller on a bad day in vegas. I know my way around, gateways, dns and ip management along with networks. So don't be afraid to jump in.. with sugestions42Views0likes3CommentsReport broken DNS node?
Hey all, I have found a broken DNS node thats run by virgin media. Any idea if there's a way I can report it? It's been broken for about a week now. Thanks in advance The failing node (194.168.4.100) is the default DNS server for my router. Using any other standard DNS fixes my access to certain websites sites. ▶ dig +trace +tcp @194.168.4.100 https://racing-tv-webtv.pages.dev/android A ;; Connection to 194.168.4.100#53(194.168.4.100) for https://racing-tv-webtv.pages.dev/android failed: timed out. ;; Connection to 194.168.4.100#53(194.168.4.100) for https://racing-tv-webtv.pages.dev/android failed: timed out. ; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> +trace +tcp @194.168.4.100 https://racing-tv-webtv.pages.dev/android A ; (1 server found) ;; global options: +cmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached ;; Connection to 194.168.4.100#53(194.168.4.100) for https://racing-tv-webtv.pages.dev/android failed: timed out.
