A bit of an annoying one really. It's been going on for as long as I can remember now and need to get it sorted.
I cannot access this site through my home Internet, it just says page cannot be displayed or connection refused etc. Yet when I turn wifi off on my phone and access using mobile data it works fine. But even then only for about 10 mins and gives me a blank page again.
Have I been added to some sort of block list or something by mistake? I've never done anything wrong on this site.
If a mod could maybe look into this etc would be good or anyone got any tips to what it could be? :sad1:

But even then only for about 10 mins and gives me a blank page again. I have about 4 Internet enabled devices and they all do the same on wifi.

Along similar lines very very regularly i have to re enter my user name and password to access the site, wherever i log in from , phone ipad or laptop !
-
Can't access the site in work but works ok everywhere else.
I get a "proxy could not connect to the destination in time" error.
It used to do this intermittently but work most of the time, gradually got worse and then stopped working altogether several months ago.
-
Yeah I just get a ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED if using my home network.
It's really annoying as I keep having to turn mobile data on and off. Only this site too.
-
I have to keep turning airplane mode on and off on my phone

Yes lol tried on chrome too. Doesn't allow access and says the same thing ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

Can you access over the same wifi with a different device? this would rule out any blocking of your ip or host by the server.

Good point. Just tried it and my tablet doesn't let me access here either.

Not sure what's happened but the layout of the site on my mobile is all to cock now.

On the mobile site the sub headings aren't spaced properly

Any idea about the access issues the rest of us are having @dazza (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10457) ?

If your getting the connection refused then send me a PM with your IP and i will sort it.
-
The site works fine with spacing ok on my mobile browser :P
-
Android 6.0 and latest version of chrome for me. Was fine up until yesterday.
-
Doesn't do it on Firefox for android. Haven't had a chrome update recently though. Weird
-
I've unblocked all ips. You guys that got blocked did you have a number of failed login attempts?
-
Don't think I did although it is possible. Fixed the work issue thanks @dazza (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10457)
I've also fixed the mobile display issue by clearing all chrome data (not just the cache) and logging back in to the website
*edit* spoke too soon. Gone all skew iff again

Nope..I usually used saved login on browser.

Fixed again now @dazza (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10457) maybe just a funny 5 minutes? Cheers anyway

Try using the normal samsung browser. Fine for me. Must be a chrome problem.

If I put the phone the other way around its seems ok

Now can't get on with WiFi
@dazza (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10457)
PM me your ip address.
-
@dazza (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10457) Can you check the IPs associated with my forum account are all ok? I can't log in at home or with 3G/4G. Vodafone is my provider. :sad1:
I'm logged in from the work network at the moment which has a different internet provider.
-
ive also been experiencing issues since last night with getting onto the forum using my o2 4G and my home virgin media broadband.
In the office today and can seem to get on fine here
-

Yes lol tried on chrome too. Doesn't allow access and says the same thing ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
Getting the refused message here too, also a disconnected message.
Connecting via satellite wifi atm, but that is normal here. Nothing else cganged IT wise.
-
Sorry guys, the reason we have all been having connection problems the past few days was due to the domain expiring. All sorted now.

Hi I'm having connection problems again :scared:
Works fine on mobile data but as soon as back on home network I get ERR_TIMED_OUT
Was fine after @dazza (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=10457) unblocked my ip for a day or so. Now it's buggered again.
-
Error connection refused
