Blocked IP?

Hi. Can I ask if the following IP address is blocked by O2:

66.119.27.225

It is a server in the US hosted by GoDaddy for a Mobile Game called The Infinite Black.

The Forums which are located on the same IP can be accessed but the game itself cannot connect.

Thanks.

Have contacted the Game Admin and according to them if I can see the forum (which I can) then the IP is not blocked. What they are suggesting is that there is some form of bandwidth throttling that prevents me connecting when the first packets of data are sent from the server. The network sees too much data and cuts the connection. Is bandwidth throttling carried out by O2?

The only way to get an official answer/explanation is to contact CS and ask why......
