Title: Techie Question - Problems accessing Blonde Poker
Post by: Pilf on February 26, 2007, 05:49:00 PM
There is a thread o nTHM forum from Byronkincaid who is having problems accessing the site.
His problem seems to be shared by a few others also. Is anyone aware of what the problem could be?
I, of course have no idea about this kind of thing.

Looks like a Btinternet problem - I haven't been able to access all day.  I've used a proxy and can now access.

That much is true - although myself and some others use BT with no issue.

I'm on the phone to them anyway so fingers crossed.

It appears to be being blocked by BT Internet.  Probably been wrongly added to its Cleanfeed filter.

Posted this through a proxy.

i dunno when moving my lapp this arfo took ethernet cable out then back in and when it was finding the router, norton came in saying a trojan horse was trying to access and it completely blocked IE! That was BT too, but it fixed itself within 30 minutes!

I've spoken to BT and emailed, in their response they assure me that it isn't blocked,  nor do they block any sites. For some reason they think I suspect that they are blocking the site - despite my entire email stating I think the problem is something else.

They've offered to ring me so I've asked them to do so tomorrow and hopefully we can resolve this then. If anyone else wants to send them my way i'll be more than happy to deal with them.

So what was the problem?  i.e. what was "something else"

ps I e-mailed BT and they denied blocking and gave out the pish that they give out while avoiding making any effort whatsoever to investigate the problem.

Their DNS servers weren't returning a result for blondepoker.com when queried, thus it looked like the site didn't exist.

I sent them an email detailling this and pretty much the same response back as you, so it's nice to see they actually read what you send.
