Hi guys, am about to go overseas with work, LA, London this time, have noticed in some places in the hotel I'm in (used to happen in Hong Kong but OK there now) I can't get AFF due to the 'site not liking the IP area or something. Very upsetting, I have to rush out for counselling! Anyway, I think the denial message sez something about writing to you guys for a fix.
Any ideas? PS. I'm sure there's info on this on the forum but haven't looked.

Wading through endless spam to find anything useful on the site or having to send an email to admin@fordforums.com.au to ask for the particular block to be temporarily removed? There is a reason that IP ranges are blocked - we don't do it unless the range has actually been used by multiple spammers attempting to gain access to AFF. Currently there are about 13,000 IP addresses or ranges blocked - a few are all the way down to the fourth octal (i.e xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) while about 1/3rd are still at the second (xxx.xxx.*) and a further 1/3rd at the third octal (xxx.xxx.xxx.*). When requests are received we can usually move from 2nd to 3rd octal to fix the issue. Cheers Russ

Depending on what you work's policies are like you can just VPN into work from OS and then browse to AFF.

Had issues in Europe recently, but only on ipad, android phone worked ok but was too small and annoying to read.
I just went Cold Turkey and was happy not to be laying under one for 6 weeks. |

I now live in the UK and often come across this issue. I bet Russ and the other admin team get sick and tired of my requests to unblock an IP address over here.
![]() Once you let them know it is usually sorted within a few hours. Keep up the good work. Regards Wayne |

Perhaps you can include a 'contact webmaster' on the block page if at all possible?

I used to spend half my life overseas. When this issue happened a quick message to admin and it was sorted within hours usually.
No matter where you are in the world, sometimes you need a FF fix. |

When it's happened to me in the past, a quick message to admin has always had it fixed quickly Edit--->maybe it still allows PM and I've used that to contact admin.

![]() I did also send an email to the suggested address on the above site and got nothing. The 3rd party was a backup due to the nil response to my email.

It shows that contacting the Fedora mob as you asked would have been useless.

I know who Fedora are, I know what Apache is. I don't know why you originally posted that Apache test page. Never mind, I'll just move along........

Not sure why you saw that, I've not seen it on AFF before but it could have been some strange redirect happening.

This is the screen you see when your IP address is banned

That's interesting. Myself and others have got the screen I put up. I have never got that screen.

Like I said, that screen is the dummy index.html page that a non-configured web server has. It would be strange to see it happen from AFF. What you may have found is that you are connected onto a different network and it's redirecting you to some other server that is displaying that page.
