A few days ago FR website has not been accessible by any device on my home network. It's like the DNS entry is gone. All other sites are fine. I have reset the modem and router and cleared the PCs DNS cache, but no access by browser or even a ping request from the command line. Anyone else with Comcast having this problem. I have used IE, Edge, Firefox Windows 10 and Ubuntu with no change in access. It's been running great till a few days ago.

I noticed a lag in page loading a few days ago and it continues.

Maybe your ISP thinks you are conservative enough.

Probably right lol. Even trying to ping the IP directly is a no go. I’m having to use my TracFone and their 3g network to post this. Puzzler.

May try that, pinging the domain does resolve to FRs IP address so I assumed the DNS resolution is ok.

Google is now recognising the security cert. Its the only issue my browser has had with FR but it just defaulted to unsecure. Now it is doing it right but I notice a lil page lag occasionally. I have no idea when Jim’s crew fixed it and my issues may not be related at all. Did a white/black listing program update and now you are “safe”?
