Something wierd going on
Submitted by Dale on Tue, 2014-08-05 07:08
When I try to open up fishwrecked on my iPad, I'm getting a message saying "Sorry, 1.127.170.157 has been banned" yet it works fine on my desk top computer here at work. Kinda wierd dont you think?
Cheers

Had it on my other computer , restarted it but same message came up. Tried the next morning and was all good. So no idea as to why but the message was as if my IP address had been blocked by the site.

Yeh
Its a generic telstra ip that has been blocked in the past (mobile device) that seems to be commonly used by telstra. I have been back through the banned IP list but there's quite a few pages worth there and I haven't been able to find it. I will continue to look to try and resolve the issue as I'm sure there's been a few people who thought they have been blocked from the site when they really haven't, bit frustrating.
The IP usually changes after a day or so, but as Dowders has said, do the airplane mode and that will reset it.
