Hi all!

Has anyone had recent issues with the forbidden access error when visiting the forum? Asking because I received a complaint that the forum is not accessible from one particular IP address while it is accessible through a VPN. That IP is not banned on our side and I can't find anything that points to the issue. So, if someone else had recent issues with the forbidden access error, please let me know.

Thank you,
Felix
 
Me, but only at home. But you are aware of that already :)

If its only happening to your home IP, turn your router off for 20 mins, let the IP cycle. ( providing your not on a static IP ) . Its likely you've been landed with a previously abused IP address, happens alot

Thanks, I will try that when I'm back home - just have to persuade the kids to live without internet for 20-mins. It will be like the blackouts in the 80s for them.

Cheers!

Your not wrong there, trying to get the kids off Roblox for 5 minutes while i do anything on the network is like i have told them the will lose access to fresh air :)
