View 7 Replies View RelatedI have an RV110W running firmware version 1.0.1.6 and I am trying to figure out how to enable website blocking in the Internet Access Policy screen. The Add Row button is grayed out in that section, as are the associated checkboxes.
Is there something else one needs to do to enable this feature?
If I set a name etc. at the top, and click save, it tells me "You must at least set a website blocking or PCs rule," so it is not the case that one has to save some information before continuing!
My company has a peer to peer network of 10 personal computers without a server. Operating systems from Windows XP to Vista. I've recently installed a Cisco RV120W Wireless-N VPN Firewall. It's configured in DHCP Server Mode with printers/copiers that have static IPs below the DHCP range.
I'm having a problem with certain stations being used for personal networking, shopping, etc. during business hours. Consequently I would like to limit internet access on these stations. However, some internet access is required because of online database software that's an integral part of our business. I've been reading in the Administration Guide about URL Blocking. Would it be possible to give static IPs to certain stations and then limit their internet access to 1 or 2 specific websites?
FYI, I've read about the Trusted Domains and Blocked Keywords but cannot quite understand how to parley this into the solution I need.
for sometime I have not been able to access any google website. I can access all others?

I've tried to ping it, and all that comes up is that request timed out, tried flush dns, restarting router/modem and even to change ip (which i did not succeed with).However i found this "solution" url... and reading the top comment, it says that "This problem occurs when viewing the same site over a router from more that one computer or application at the same time for a period of time." And i have done exactly that in the past days the site was working.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to reach [URL] and just keep getting a timed out message. I had this problem before once and gave up trying to solve it and then one day I came across a post at SWI in my google results and amazingly, I was able to access the site. I have no idea what was different on that particular day.
Same symptoms in Firefox and IE so I don't think its a browser issue.
Tried accessing the site through the IP address - same result.
Tried safe mode with networking - same result
I reset my router a few days ago because of another issue but I haven't reset it since this problem began. I have tried restting my router dns to opendns and also google public dns, neither of which has made any difference.
I got a friend to confirm that the site is not down, as I suspected. Tried to ping the site using this and the only 2 UK locations on the list said 100% packet loss - is this relevant?
I'm having problem accessing myanimelist.net for months. I can access other websites except it. Some days I can access it and some days I cant. Just this morning I accessed it and then I returned during the afternoon and I can't access it anymore.

For the last couple months, I have had a serious problem with connecting to one (and only one) website: cms.bsu.edu (Ball State University, 147.226.7.60). This occurs from my home using a broadband connection. I say serious because this is my work website and I am an online instructor. Not being able to access BSU creates a serious problem for me. Note that this is 1) only an intermittent problem (only happens every few weeks, lasts for a day to a couple days, typically), 2) occurs with any and all browsers that I have tried, 3) occurs cross-platform (Mac or Win), on multiple machines, 4) goes away when using a neighbor's wi-fi signal from my home, 5) goes away when using these same machines with any other IP address (at McDonald's, BSU, etc., etc., etc.)Tech support at my IP suggested that we download virus software and confirm that the system is not infected.
We did this, but let me call your attention to the fact that 1) this is occurring to ALL of our computers simultaneously -- even though they are running different operating systems and that 2) there are virtually no viruses that infect more than one OS. So, the likelihood that this is a virus is very, very, very small. Furthermore this is intermittent (not typical of viruses), and two goes away when using anything other than our Ninestar ISP IP. Hopefully, you are beginning to see a trend here.Ninestar tech support has also suggested that the problem might be with our wi-fi router. However, that is not the case, as this problem exists even when hard-wired directly through the Ethernet (no wi-fi).
As far as I can tell, that pretty much isolates this problem to two sources:ttp//:cms.bsu.edu (Ball State University) and my ISP (NineStar). We have contacted Ball State and they have had no other reports of this problem. Since they have thousands of connections made per hour from the same platforms (PC and Mac) running the same software, that makes it very unlikely that the problem lies with them. Today, with BSU still unaccessible, I decided that I should force a reboot on the entire Ethernet system at home.
There is a box in my garage that is designed to route the signal to my phones, my cable, and my internet router so I powered it down just in case. This didn't make a bit of difference. Ethernet still works fine for all sites except 147.226.7.60. I also pinged BSU. Timed out on both Mac and PC via direct Ethernet connectionFinally, I have used proxies to visit BSU, but since they don't handle encrypted signals, this doesn't really . No email, no Blackboard, pretty much only viewing their website is possible.
I've been trying to access a particular website for several days now, but every time I try to I get the "Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to" error.The website in question is:I know that it is working as other people who I know post on the forum have not had the same problem.I've tried the standard things of clearing cache, switching wireless router off/on but still nothing.

Both these operations seem offer streaming video but in a P-2-P mode. As a result typical daily uploads are running at greater than 6GB. My ISP daily upload limit is 1750 MB; after that I am throttled to 25% of the service I am paying for.I have tried and failed to explain to the students the impact this is having on me. I would like therefore to be able to prevent P2P uploads by suitable settings on my router. Is this possible?

I've been reading around all the forums and have found people with the same problem but none of them actually posted back saying how they fixed it. I was literally editing a blog page when I clicked on update and the website didn't let me connect anymore.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI've gone through a variety of diagnostics and I honestly don't know what to think. It's not my computer, as I can access the site on this computer on a different network. It's likely not the whole of my LAN network either, because my kindle can access the site through it. I can always access it on this computer with a proxy as well. I can ping it fine, and tracert it equally as well.I've tried everything from socket fixes, DNS flushes, getting new WAN IP addresses. When I got a new WAN IP address the first time the site was accessible once, and then it stopped again after that. I can't clone the MAC address from the router, because it doesn't allow it.

For some reason, there is a specific website that I cannot access. I am a member of the website and they have a community forum for contacting them and requesting support, but obviously I cannot contact them if I cannot access their site!
The website is [URL]. I read in another post that I should do the TRACERT command and post the results so I am doing that here.
My internet provider have blocked a website. I know there is a way to bypass the block and go to the website, without using websites such as Hide My ***! Free Proxy and Privacy Tools - Surf The Web Anonymously.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was able to access my website [URL] just fine before I changed the cPanel password. Now I cannot even load the site or load the cPanel login page here: [URL] All I did was change the cPanel password. When I use another computer that is NOT on my network, I can connect to the site fine. I'm assuming that my network is blocking it for some reason after the cPanel password change. I tried the IP address in the address bar as well (still no go). Cannot "ping" the IP address either. I reset my modem and router as well. Cleared cache in browsers as well.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe updated our business website in December and moved the hosting to our web designer's servers.Very shortly afterwards, we discovered that we could not view our own website, nor access our emails, which are hosted through our web domain name via cPanel.We run two Apple Macs through a Linksys router connected by two ethernet cables. We also have a Vonage internet phone connected to the network, which works either connected directly to the modem, or routed through the Linksys.We had this set up since March and had never had any problems until we had the new website. We don't know if its related, or just a coincidence.
We first went through a process of elimination:
First we connected the computers directly to the modem (one at a time, as obviously both can't connect directly) and we could access our emails and website absolutely fine. Not a solution though, as we need access on two machines.This led us to believe the problem was with the router. Both the Linksys and the Vonage device (box that the phone is plugged into, which is in turn connected to the internet) work as routers and we could view both router's home pages through their ip addresses.
We first called Vonage customer support, and no matter what they suggested in the nearly 2 hour call, nothing worked.We found a solution that suggested changing the MAC address of our router. After looking at the settings of the Vonage box, we couldn't work out how to change the MAC on this, so we changed the MAC of the Linksys instead - and it worked. We could view our emails and website again.However, plugging the Vonage box back in resulted in us losing access to our emails and website again. The set up solution worked for about a day before the same problems came back.
So we again unplugged the Vonage phone device and just ran our two Macs from the Linksys router - all fine, for a bit.A couple of days later the emails and website became inaccesible again. In desperation I changed the Mac address of the Linksys router and we were up and running again.
This solution worked for another day or so, until the old problems arose again.Now, whenever we reset the Mac address of the Linksys, it works, but emails and the website become inaccesible sometimes as soon as half an hour afterwards, sometimes longer, but however long we can gain access to the emails for, we constantly have to stop to reset the router, then restart everything.We now know that its nothing to do with the Vonage phone, so I'm discounting that from the equation now. Also, we've just tried running each of our computers in turn when plugged directly into the modem via an ethernet cable. Interestingly, one machine works fine, and can access the emails and our website, but the other machine now can't access the email or the website, but loads all other sites fine. Is this significant?
We've been reading up on our problems again, and it has been suggested that the issues are being caused by the website/email server blocking our ip address and that we can solve this issue by having a static ip address instead of the dynamic one that Virgin Media assigns. As we are on a home broadband service, we understand that this isn't possible though. Surely, if Virgin reassigns ip addresses every session, our ip would be constantly changing, therefore if we were blocked by the website server, wouldn't it be more likely to be blocking a static one, not one that is constantly changing? And also, how come one of our machines can access the emails etc when directly connected to the modem, but the other can't?
Other solutions proposed have been:
-Get a new router
-Move our website to a new server
-Move our emails to a new server and access our own website through a proxy.
There is a website in .com domen and another one international .eu When I try to connect it keeps redirecting me beetwen those two (A loop basically) with Firefox it's like this: Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.I tried cleaning cash, enabling&disabling cookies, i also tried editing hosts file attaching name to ip, using anonymizer doesn't work either. And I repeated all the above with Internet Explorer. I've got Win7 sp1 and my ip isn't static/also I can ping the desirable site and it says it's ok.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe're having problems access 'our own' externally hosted website with SBS 2003. I know this is commonly a DNS issue, but I cannot for the life of me get to the bottom of this. The site is hosted on a web host
Here are the facts:
- SBS 2003 w/single NIC. D-LINK DIR-655 router.
- DNS internally is handled by SBS, DNS forwarders set in order: 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220 (OpenDNS Servers)
- Trying to browse website from the SBS server or any other machine on network
- Gateway is router (192.168.1.1)
- Trying to access our own web site, hosted by a 3rd party. Trying both example.com and www.example.com - Both are simply redirected to search pages.
- Trying to get to OTHER websites hosted on this same IP also fail
Problem description:
1 - Website works fine outside this network (i.e., from my house, other sites)
2 - Pinging example.com resolves to correct IP and responses are received
3 - Nslookup resolves correct IP
4 - Trace resolves correct IP and completes successfully
Troubleshooting steps:
1 - ipconfig/flushdns
2 - Restarting DNS service on SBS 2003 server
3 - Adding host entry for the domain/IP
4 - Restarted SBS 2003 server
5 - Adding forward lookup zone for example.com > adding A record for www pointing to IP
I have a media server, running Windows Server 2003, it is also acting as my Domain controller, DNS and DHCP Server, I have a website hosted at UKHost4u.com, and I can also access my media server using the name url, I have pointed this subdomain to my external IP address of my router, in the Cpanel of my hosting acount now my problem is that I can not access my main website from my house, it just sends me to the login screen of my Media Server, it is something to do with the DHCP Server running on my server, as I turned it off and turned the one on my router back on and it cleared the problem.
