Unable to Connect to Arch Wiki or Forum

For some reason I am unable to connect to any arch wiki or arch forum pages on my network. It's almost as if my IP is being blocked and if it is, I have absolutely no idea why. I've never even visited arch sites before a few days ago. Any ideas?

Nope. Traceroute will help diagnose.

Re: Unable to Connect to Arch Wiki or Forum

I gather you did not post this message from your Network.  jasonwryan's suggestion of traceroute is an excellent place to start.  If you were to send to me by email the IP of your network, I will be happy to check it against banned addresses -- although this is of low likelihood.  Even if it were, one would expect a message from the forums that the address you are using is banned.

Ok, thanks. I'll give trace route a try and send you my IP just incase.

The IP address is not blocked.  Can you reach the forums at all?  Which browser are you using? Are you using static addresses or dynamic addresses?  Can other computers are your network reach the site?
