Need Tech Help bad with MYO

[havefaith]

Until a while ago I was able to access this site on a regular daily basis. Then one day it was gone I couldnt get here any more. I thought the website had gone down because I could not access it at all. I just found out today the website was still around because I connected to it from my phone. Now here is my question.

I spent an hour on the phone with uverse tech support and they say that for some reason my home IP address is being blocked by mywayout.org, is this possible? I can access the site from anywhere (work or phone) else other than my house? I think it is my modem? Or are they right is my IP address being blocked for some reason? He (tech support) said that sometimes with uverse you might get blocked because the way uverse works some website might see all home devices trying to connect at the same time and think they are being attacked and then block that IP address. I desperately miss the site and the help, backing, and support I get here.

Please be bad hardware or are they right?

Hi Havefaith,
Yes this is possible your IP address can be blocked by someone else, my friend husband didn't want her to come on this site so he block the site, if your the main user on your pc at home you can unblock it, but i dont know how. Also it might sound like someone might of got in contact with the main site and told them to block you ( i could be wrong)..... so sorry to hear this, i cant get on the site anymore only through the library ( but that is a different story to yours)
Hope all is ok with you and you get this sorted out soon.x:l

Tech support is correct. The same thing happened to me. I ran a tracert from my computer and contacted the server that had me blocked. They informed me that my IP was blocked by MWO's fire wall, and that MWO needed to contact them to unblock my IP. It's not an intentional thing. Tech support can help you discover the place you need to contact. Once you know who MWO needs to contact, write to the "helpdesk" and let them know. It's a lot of hassle, but I am so glad to be able to get back on MWO from home and not my phone or a coffee shop. Good luck!
