It's a right pain in the a$$. It just fails to load the pages, no timeout, just a blank page. It's not only this forum but any invisionfree sites.
I've emailed Telstra, and phoned them. I haven't had an email response yet, but the guy at their helpdesk suggested it wasn't Telstra blocking access, and they cannot tell any website to accept any particular IP, as whoever runs a forum etc has the right to accept or deny access. I agree with them there.
I wonder if it's due to Invision seeing the IP block as a 'Bogon' IP range. This usually happens when a new IP range is released and not all services recognise it as legit. It happened when UBS / Bitstream was released, some Bitstream users couldn't access some sites. I have raised this in my email.
I am aware that Chris J (Pieman) and Chris D are Telstra clients, and know
that Pieman cannot access here, I haven't spoken to Chris D but will text him tomorrow to see how he's going.
I am getting around it using a proxy IP server that makes my IP address look like something different but it's a nuisance doing that just for this site.
I can connect thru dial-up (aaarrrrggggggghhhh) using FreeNet but that is just stupid (and only my laptop has a dial up modem, the main PC wouldn't know what dial up is!)
Anyhow, any help would be appreciated
Dang .. that was'nt so bad , must be that big spoungee cable I landed on
