When’s the last time you had problems? If its still happening can you send me a PM (very helpful if you can send when you experience a block) with your IP address and it’s highly likely I can make a permanent fix

As a general statement to everyone (not directed to you what so ever), what I’ve noticed recently is that people just want to jump on a complain bandwagon for something they experienced weeks or months ago, which is fine. But I want to fix real current problems anyone is having so if you are having an active issue please do feel free to post here or contact me directly via PM with your IP and there’s a high chance I get this fixed up permanently for you

I PMed you a few(?) weeks ago with my IP, whatever you did seemed to fix it until the above message. Although it hasn't happened again, yet.....

Of course, if that’s actually true (you use multiple ISPs in New York), it speaks to a you problem and not an IP block. If it really is happening like that, the more (accurate) information you can provide the better
That's right, the same problem was from three different Isp's. Home and 2 from work.

It appears to be working now.

For anyone on a Mac, I traced the issue of random access issues to the private relay. With it on, ~50% success rate opening the site. Off, no problems.

If you have trouble connecting, first check if your IP is on a blacklist somewhere (not by bimmerpost):

Find out what IP you have been assigned by your ISP:
https://whatismyipaddress.com/

Now check that IP to see if it has been blacklisted:
https://www.abuseipdb.com/

The problem usually is that the world is running out of IPv4 addresses so ISP's will use a round-robin approach to assigning you an IP. If someone using the same ISP is sending out spam, or trying to hack in somewhere, then the IP YOU are sometimes assigned will be blacklisted.

The reason it sometimes work through your phone or VPN is that this assigns you a new IP.
