Router Blocking Websites?

Hi All,

Hope someone can help?

Both myself and my dad are with O2. I have no issues whatsoever with my connection or router.

My dad on the otherhand has had the reset issue - which is being looked into. But now certain websites do not load on his laptop, iTouch or Ps3 - but they do on my O2 connection.

I have also tried my laptop at his to access the same page but with no joy. Can anyone advise what will be blocking this?

The page is PC Dropship!, The Best PC Dropshipper

Cheers,

Chris

Re: Router Blocking Websites?

It won't be the router blocking the sites. It's probably a routing problem in the network or the site(s) not liking the IP range your router has (Google bogon filtering).

If it's something that's bothering you and you don't have the ability to force an IP address change to see if that's the issue, then call O2 and ask them to sort it.

Thanks Saturday.

I will speak to O2 and see if they can help, if not and I want to configure a different router do I only need the O2 username and password?

Cheers,

Chris

If your Dad is on O2 LLU then there's no password or username. If he's on O2 Access there is, which he can get from O2.

Full details for using another router with O2 are here.
