Having trouble to access the forum these recent days

Post by Hijase »

Hi guys, maybe the forum was just down but I was unable to connect here for a few days, while still receiving board notifications after my posts.

Could somebody please check if there's an issue with changing IP's as I'm connecting from a public hotspot in France?

Thanks in advance! :)

We're aware of the problem.. it seems a lot of public/hotel wifi services in France subscribe to a blacklist of sites/IP addresses which is blocking access to the forum and some other websites hosted on the same server.

See this thread for details:
https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17709

If you can help us out by supplying the domain name of the service you're connecting through, we can begin the process of having the forum removed from the blacklist. Please post to the other thread though.
