RV.net Access

From the above link, get your current IP address. Send an email to webmaster@rv.net and tell them that your IP address is blocked in their server firewall IP table and to please forward the email to the proper person that maintains their servers. No doubt the person that handles that email address will not understand what a firewall is but they should know who to send it to.

That is the exact router that has blocked me for weeks. The problem is how to go about getting unblocked.

From the command prompt use tracert You will see someting like the example below. The trace route will stop at the router blocking you. Often during a DDOS attack, like they had last week, the server will key on repeated attempts to access a site and add the ip address to the firewall.

Interesting that the last router in the chain fails to identify itself in this example.

tracert woodalls.com

Could you just go down the street and get a 12 year old neighbor kid to fix it for you. Dang kids.


The information is out there, all you have to do is let it in.

.

I do not have that problem with log-in every time I change forum topics. Most times I do not log-in unless I reply to a thread which is not often. I do have a problem responding--ex; trying to use quotes in responding to threads.

Wish I could fix the real problem. I don't remember correctly but I think if you use IP config in command mode using local IPS you will find the exact server where you are getting blocked. I cannot find a way to contact this server.

Maybe some tech guru will see this thread and respond. My local IPS was very helpful but only so much they could do.

It is my IP address that is blocked so anyone using my router will be blocked.

Thanks for that information...I forwarded it to my email account and will try it from my home computer this evening!

This proxy did work! It does require I log-in every time I change forum topics. Thanks for the tip!

For 2 weeks I could not get into RV.net on this computer, laptop, or ipad.
A lot of phone calls to local IP for support and found somewhere down the line I was blocked by a server or RV.net for spamming if I remember correctly. Don't know how my name got on a list somewhere but gave up trying to find out.

Try someone's laptop or whatever from your house using WIFI and see what happens.
Sounds like what you tried using was a translator, not a "proxy site".

Maybe the same?

X2? Never heard of it, nor have been able to find any test reviews from independent security groups?

I'd be hesitant to install any security software based only on claims made by its developers?
