[Q] Cox not connecting

Postby Tornado Queendom » Tue Apr 07, 2020 6:03 pm

So I was on the forums doing my own thing, and then Cox decided to block it. It's been happening for AT LEAST 2-3 weeks, and I am posting it here because it recently spread to NationStates. Any suggestions on how it might be related to NationStates or Cox?

Also, the main website still works. Just not the forums.

Assuming that Cox is your ISP, what exactly is your problem? What is Cox blocking? Why do you think NS can help? And finally...if you can't get to the forums, how did you make this thread??? I'm so confused.
If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
James 1:26-27, Matthew 7:21-23

1. Cox has packet loss and I end up connecting to their web filter pages
2. It's blocking literally half the internet! YouTube, BitChute, Vlare, and now the Nationstates forums are ALL blocked.
3. I think Nationstates might help with it, and Cox might realize their mistakes when messing with Nationstates.
4. I'm using a VPN

Unfortunately, if Cox is dropping packets and other websites are also being impacted, it sounds like the problem is on Cox's end without much of anything that we can do from here. A lot of internet providers are struggling with unusually high load right now with so many people on lockdowns and relying on internet for work-from-home as well as entertainment like streaming.
