For over a year now I have been trying to access a particular website (nothing dodgy!) using my home wi-fi but have been unable to do so. I have tried using a MacBook and a Windows 10 laptop to no avail.
I can access it on 3G on my iPhone.
I have tried contacting BT. Last year they were unable to find any fault. Today I have spent nearly 2 hours trying to get an answer and then having got through I was cut off after 20 minutes.
I have no problems with any other websites.
Can anyone help?
Does it happen with different browsers?
Have you turned off web protect in MYBT?
I have tried Safari, Google and Bing. I haven’t turned off web protect but will have a look at it. Could this affect just one website?
Yes, of course, that's it's purpose.
What is the URL you are unable to reach?
But why only one website?
It's not just blocking 1 website, it's blocking websites that it considers you should be protected from. It just happens that you are only trying to access 1 of the thousands of sites it protects you from.
Turned it off. No different. Still won't let it load.
What is the URL?
No problem accessing it here. Make sure you have no parental controls enabled.
Try changing DNS servers to 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4 on your laptop/MAC
