Cable Forum - View Single Post - [Browsing] Can't access some sites (wow, starcraft2)

Thanks for your suggestions.

I checked my firewall settings (even though I'd be scared if someone would've set up a IP block ,) ) and I can confirm that my router is not blocking any IPs.

The problem also crops up on all machines in our house (grand total of 5) so I dare to rule out a setting issue (Windows Firewall is deactivated, no additional security programs running).

Is it possible that Virgin blocks certain IPs? Looking at the number of WoW players though I'd expect a riot, so somehow I don't think Virgin'd do that.

Either way I'll try contacting their support again (if I can find my way through the web-maze) even though I kinda know which standard response I'll get.

If anyone has ony other suggestions or if I can provide you with more info, let me know! Thanks again!
