Can't connect to one website

My airport extreme n is preventing access to one specific website, for an educational institution.
I have confirmed that the problem is the router by plugging my computer directly into the modem and accessing the website.
I have tried restoring factory default settings but the problem persists.
Help! I need to access this website!
I am running OS10.6; I could imagine a problem in the interaction between my software and the router, but, as I said, I can connect to the website by bypassing the router, so the router is involved somehow.

yeah I see that traceroute.  Now if a proxy allows you in, then what is happening is that website has blocked the ip address you have in your router.   You may be able to call VZ tech support and have them break the lease on the ip address (you can use that verbiage) And then reboot the router, and you may get a new IP Address.   The new ip address won't be blocked by the website just like it isn't blocking the ip address from the proxy.    
You can also try you're luck with rebooting the router, and trying to get a new ip, chances are it will grab the same ip address, or if you really don't want to call Verizon, you can leave the router unplugged for about 5-30 minutes, and then when you turn it back on, your hope is that it gets a new ip on it's own. 
So verizon isn't technically blocking it, because if it was you would be blocked 100% from getting there, but the site can impose blocks to certain ip's or blocks of ips, and it sounds like they have blocked the ip that you have.

  • Problem connecting to one website, tracert shows timeout at 7 & 8

    Hi all, So I am having issues connecting to one website. Everytime I run tracert it shows a similar timeout. I am not sure what is causing this. My web browsing otherwise is great. Just having issues with this one website. Below is a sample of tracert results: Tracing route to ip-160-153-59-163.ip.secureserver.net [160.153.59.163]

    Hi, Thanks for the reply. I've tried contacting the host and they are telling me it's an issue with my isp. I can access the website with no problems from other devices just not on my pc when I go through my comcast connection. I have been having this issue for a few days now. I will try to contact the host again. Is there anything I can do to prove that it is an issue with the host? Thanks

  • How many apple tv can I connect with one account?

    how many apple tv can I connect with one account?

    there are 2 recent posts that suggest issues over 5, one where someone was trying to troubleshoot for a friend or client as they couldn't keep more than 5 connected, and the other where somone had more than 5 but was using 2 separate itunes libraries to share the load - not sure if that was with the same or differing AppleIDs.
    I guess there is always the possibility that things kight vary from one itunes version to the next even unintentionally to allow more.

  • How many ipads for business use can be connected to one itunes account

    I have nine ipads that i want our service techs to use. How many ipads can i connect to one itunes account to restrict access or is there another way to limit the personal use?

    You'll find the answer here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/23800598?tstart=0#23800598?tstart=0
    However, I'm not aware of any way to limit access - aside from Parental Controls.

  • Can only connect from one direction

    I'm having trouble video confrencing... I tried searching the forums, but I'm having trouble thinking of clever search terms.
    I can only connect from one direction with one person. They can invite me to a chat and it works fine every time. However when I invite them it always fails. I can invite other people and it works fine though.
    This doesn't seem like a typical router problem, because they can invite me and we videochat just fine.
    This has been a problem for most versions of iChat that I can remember, but I'm using 3.1.5 currently.

    Hi
    Is the other person a PC user.

    I can connect http://www.bbc.co.uk/ & you may be interested in http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/diagnostics
    Is your problem with streaming audio broadcasts to and are you outside the UK ?
    If so you may have fallen prey to the BBC's Content Distribution Network which often seems to produce problems they keep re-issuing advice such as:

  • I can't connect to one of my games. It was fine one minute. Any ideas.  I have done all I can think of..

    I  can't connect with one of my games.  Threw Facebook.  Tried everything. Any ideas.

    Post the screenshots of the setup of the TC so we can see what is going on.
    I want to see the main summary.
    Click edit and give us the internet tab, wireless tab and network tab.
    From that we can work out what is the issue.

  • Can't connect to some websites but internet is working

    My internet is working but I can't connect to some websites ( various university) when I disconnect the time capsule and connect directly from the modem then it works. Internet provider said it was a problem with my time capsule...
    I restored to factory settings and unplugged/ plugged 100 times. Even created new network.
    Don't know what else to do...
    Anyone out there with a similar experience??
    Thanks!

    Hi, barcenas. Welcome to the forums!
    Check your TC's DNS settings. Try using 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. Does this allow you to connect to the websites?

  • Suddenly can't connect to certain websites

    This week I discovered that I am unable to connect to several websites I am accustomed to visiting frequently. These are not 404 errors. Safari and Firefox both give me the message that they "can't connect to the server," and Netscape says the "connection was not accepted." The problem websites I discoverd so far are nytimes.com, daypop.com, democracynow.org
    I had monkeyed with some of my system settings including activating the firewall which I deactivated with no better results. I cannot remember if there
    was anything else I did which could affect the web connections. I repaired permissions just in case--no change. It was suggested that I make one of the problem sites my home page on Safari--that did no good.
    I sent a message to the NY Times via webmast@nytimes. com asking if there was some reason I should suddenly have a problem connecting--it didn't get spit back at me, but it has yet to be answered.
    Out of ideas as to what else to try. Any help out there?
    Thanks.

    Uh-oh. Very bad that so far NO ONE has any idea how to help. I've put up the question on a couple of Mac site forums which got me to the Network Utility. I tried using it but for the most part can't interpret the results. If posting them will enlighten anyone, I'd be glad to do that.
    Someone suggested that I needed to use a different DNS. Now I'm into territory I don't really understand. I went to my ISP's support website and found the addresses of the primary and secondary DNS. My TCP/IP settings didn't require that I input any DNS address, but armed with them, I entered the secondary address and tried to connect again, but no luck.
    Aaarghhh!

  • Can't connect to a website WRT54G v5

    Ok All was fine and then one day I could not connect to a website.
    www.worldofwarcraft.com  to be exact.
    Every time I try to go there I get, internet explorer can not display the web page.  I have reset, unplugged and switched back to the default settings on my router.  I am using the WRT54G v5 and I have the newest firmware v1.02.0
    No matter what I can not display the page.  Every where else I go I have no problem.  I have 3 computers on this router one is wireless, two are plugged into the ports.  All have the same problem when I try to access this site
    Now if I bypass my router and just plug into my cable modem I have no problem getting to the site.  It comes right up like it should as if nothing is wrong. 
    Any ideas or tips on fixing this would be greatly appreciated

    I have the exact same problem with my WRT54GS V2 router.  All connections worked fine, then one day I could no longer connect to easo.ea.com via my PS3.  Then a month later I lost connection to www.golfsmith.com from all PCs.  I too can connect to the site and the game server via the modem, but can't connect to or ping either one through the router.  please help! I have had this issue for 3 months now.  I can connect to other game servers with the PS3 and load all other web sites via the PCs.    

  • Won't connect to one website

    I have a  2009 Mac Book Pro. Last couple of days, our internet connection has been slow. Today, it crashes for awhile and when it returns, I cant get the one website I need to load on any of my browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox). I cleared caches, restarted, all for nothing. And, my wife's computer, 3 feet away, same IP address, connects just fine. Any ideas? I'm not entirely sure this is a Mac issue but I'm stumped. Every other website (including other sites I manage on the same server) loads fine.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Can't connect to 1 Website

    Very clearly here:
    Only ONE website will not connect from this location.
    From any other location the website connects. The website is fine, up and running with no problems.
    No firewall settings are problematic (this is triple confirmed by both the ISP [comcast] and onsite).
    No additional software on any machine at this problematic location (no "tweaks," plugins, nothing).
    Only in one of my locations.
    No machine in that location can connect to this one website.
    With the exception of that one website, we can get to anywhere on the web.
    Again, this problem does not exist in any other location.
    We have run all manner of diagnostics at this location.
    Has anyone had experience with this situation?
    Thanks,

    What location?

  • Remote Desktop Connection Times Out With "Can't Connect" From One Specific Computer Only

    This is an odd one... I manage several servers from this computer. This particular server, 2012 Essentials, won't allow for remote desktop connections to either the server or attached workstations. I can get into the server's remote web page but when I
    attempt a remote desktop connection, it hangs on "Initiating remote connection..." and then times out with the error response that remote desktop can't connect. But... if I attempt the same connections from any other computer, I am able to get in
    and utilize remote desktop. Does this mean that there is a certificate issue with the computer unable to connect and if so, how does one remedy this? Or is it some other issue? I've attempted everything within my technical ability to no avail. Any suggestions
    are greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Before going further, would you please let me know the RDC version that used in the problematic computer? Was it the same with other computers?
    Please temporarily disable firewall and then check if this issue can be solved. Based on your current description, it’s hard to say the root reason of this issue.
    So, I suggest that you should check relevant log files and get some clues. It will help us to narrow down and solve your issue.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,
    Justin Gu
