Blocked from site

Community Forums/General Help/Blocked from site

Can you guys give some advise on how to check if I am being blocked from visiting a site?

The site in question is www.basic4ppc.com

I can access this site from work, but not at home
At home I tried from the PC, and laptop with IE,Chrome, and Opera
I always get "domain not registered" type of errors

What methods can I use to connect to said site?
I could re-route via an online site but then I am concerned about logging into the actual forum. Can a re-route site capture login details?

Most likely a DNS problem. Try using GoogleDNS or OpenDNS.

Works fine for me, looks like a good program too! might have to give it a try when I get my android phone in June

Sounds like a DNS issue.

It could be that they used to be hosted with your ISP, and moved to a different one, without your ISP removing the old DNS records from their server after they left so you're receiving outdated info.

I agree, it's likely a DNS issue, not the site blocking you.

Thanks GFK
I fed in the Google DNS settings and it worked straight away!
