Blocked IP?

[Anonymous]

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.

Ok thanks.

Just got off of the phone - only reason they could think was that it was an over 18s thing blocking it.

I very much doubt this is going to be the case, but i have to wait and ring back if/when it doesnt work

What protocol does this game server use exactly?

Just because you can connect to the forums on the same ip means nothing.  There could be a firewall blocking a specific port or some other filtering.

not sure how to check this.

it worked fine on 3's network

To see if it's an issue with O2's network, you could try using one of the free VPN services available.

How would i go about this?

I'm not sure if the forum rules allow me to post instructions for a third party service or not, (advertising).

Maybe @MI5 or @Cleoriff can help me out here?

@Toby @Anonymous will be able to confirm wether it's allowed. 😄

@MI5  appears to be offline so I will have to leave it to someone who knows for sure.  Maybe @Anonymous ?
