Banned IP Address
When I go to the TOTV today, using my Comcast wifi, I am getting a message that the administrator has banned my IP address. Is anyone else getting this message? How do I contact the administrator about it?

I use Comcast and haven’t encountered this problem. Wonder what’s going on.

We are looking into this. So far, there are no common IP addresses between you. The last IP blocked was on Cox, which neither of you show as a provider at any time on TOTV. Other members with Comcast are getting in without problems. We have tagged this thread for Admin’s attention.

Try a different browser, Edge, FireFox, Chrome, etc., and see if you can get in, if so provide the info to the admin. I have had problems in the past specifically with IE11 blocking sites for no apparent reason.

And you are correct...I have never had Cox. I am currently using my phone (not connected to Comcast) to post, but am guessing that there are a lot of other Comcast folks having the same problem...but don't know how to contact y'all. Thanks again. |

Per your suggestion, I just tried both IE and Chrome...and am getting same message.

OK, I am on Comcast, using my computer with no problems, now I know that in the past Comcast had problems with the translation of your IpV4 address to the rest of the internets IpV6 address system. You could try calling comcast and complain to them. Good luck with this as most have English as a second language....

There is an old banned IP list out there that has the Talk Of The Villages domain server on it when it was identified as a spammer. This is a symptom of that old list beginning to propagate once again through the internet. It will eventually get a more recent list and fix itself. Nothing anyone can really do. A temp fix would be to change your DNS servers to get a current list. It's the Talk Of The Villages IP address that is banned not your personal home IP addresses. Your phone or tablet uses an alternate set of DNS servers. Last edited by SFSkol; 11-24-2018 at 02:35 PM. Reason: edification |

I'll bet the TOTV Team is playing with the spam filters.

I can see it on my phone, but my tablet gets the error message. The odd part is I can see the classifieds just fine on the tablet.
