1361093 2013-11-29 04:18:00 Hey I having been having these problem relating to website from long time , I. Thought it will automically solve it itself later on but something funny I found today . I have found our two pc which both cant access it and iPod touch safari browser and chrome too . Though I download opera mini due to data saving and guess what perfectly works fine ,no freezing , no meesage . Now the message that comes on the devices is Bulletin message - sorry the adminstrator has banned your IP address . To contact admin click here and there's a link. . Now what I said before was funny opera can open will iPod touch , and two pc display same message . Could it be the modem , or browser problem . What can I do to resolve it and ohh and site is tfw2005.com which is a transformers fan based site . Other transformers fan based like blog , etc work fine . AppleFan (17097)
1361094 2013-11-29 04:57:00 It means you've been banned from the website, or a previous user of your IP address has. Chilling_Silence (9)
1361095 2013-11-29 07:01:00 Do you leave your router "always on" ?

Do you have a static ip for any reason?
(an assigned ip that stays the same)

If you don't have a static ip, switch off the router for at least 5 - 10 minutes and reboot it
you should have a different ip assigned - if not, repeat until it is :)

Or just download Tor (https://www.torproject.org/) and load the site from it's anonymous portable browser it spawns for you

1361098 2013-11-29 08:47:00 Hey Chilling science , i wonder why It means you've been banned from the website and what does this mean a previous user of your IP address has. Please reply ,i would like to know what u meant .Static IP address means that your ISP has assigned a [semi] permanent IP address to you and/or your computer/s. That's opposed to a dynamic IP address which is almost always changed each time you log onto the Internet.

Sooo... if you have or had an IP address which has been banned by the website then you're auto-blocked. It becomes a bit more clearer than mud if you run a website and analyse the visitors - forum website owner/administrators often do these sort of checks and blocks.

1361099 2013-11-29 12:56:00 Easy check:
1) Restart your router
2) If you're still banned, they banned you, unfortunately you just have to deal with it.

1361100 2013-11-30 08:13:00 We recently had to change servers to "Digiweb" when they took over hosting from "Utopia". All our computers were banned at one time, reason being that if you got a password wrong 3 times they banned the IP address. This was caused by the sites being migrated, during which the passwords for Email & FTP were changed, but no one told us! All settled down now. mzee (3324)
