After the recent downtime i have been assigned a new IP but it seems to have a bad reputation, for example Reddit seems to block the IP and the mail service i use Brevo.com blocks connections from the IP outright.
Not sure what someones been doing with this IP in the past !!!
Could be the IP has no reputation or something else ? But does concern me that an IP used by a VPN service such as torguard seems to connect to Brevo and Reddit fine but the one ive been allocated is blocked.
Weâve done full checks on these and canât find any reputation issues, also geolocation looks to be fine - so this is really odd and weâre still investigating
I think the problem is more than just IP reputation. The problems donât seem to make sense. Iâm on 154 network and had no problems yesterday. Today however I canât connect to Sky Stream or Sky Go, BBC News App on my phone wonât connect at all. My banking apps will either not connect or will repeatedly give service timeout errors. Also and even more of a problem, my Zscaler Client Connect struggles to connect, more than a little annoying since I work for Zscaler. There is obviously something very wrong with the core of the network, but Iâm not sure itâs IP reputation. All of my problems are in a backdrop of my router confirming that I have no connection dropouts and I am connected at 2000 up and 990 down.
Just as an update. Streaming, websites, SKY Stream etc all working fine now, still an issue with Banking/Finance Apps. Specifically Santander times out a few times, but does work. Amex does not connect, Nationwide does not connect, also Experian does not connect. Strangely, F1 Clash wonât connect either. For now I think youâre 99% there, just some niggles to iron out
OK, bit more info. F1 Clash works, donât worry about that. For the banking Apps it is only the initial âSecuring connectionâ that isnât working, if I get in to the App over 4G it then works fine over Wifi. So a very niche issue to do with the initial security handshake, other than that everything else works 100%
