Can't access JF forum or repo from home network - jedicoach44 - 2024-09-03

So I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I can't access certain Jellyfin things like the repo or the forums from my home connection, but with a vpn I can. Any suggestions as to why that would be the case? Any thoughts on what to do to fix? I can access jellyfin.org but when I click on the forums page it gives me a blank page and then says the site can't be reached. I've tried on multiple computers on my network as well as deleting all the cache etc. I've also changed the DNS of my router etc. I'm at a loss.

Is it possible that somehow my IP address got blocked on their end? I have no idea as to why that would happen but I'm trying to figure out all options at this point. Super frustrating....

I just got the following error when trying to access the repo:

Your connection was interruptedA network change was detected.
ERR_NETWORK_CHANGED

Hope this helps someone identify what's going on for me?

Do you live in a country that may block our sites?

No I'm in the US. I'm connected now to another network near my home and it's working fine. But my IP address won't allow me to connect. It's really strange.

Do you have a pihole? Or adblocker?

Also, can you send me a PM with your public IP? There was a DDOS attack against the forum a few months ago. Some of the mitigations against the attack resulted in individual users also getting blocked on an IP level, who contacted us via email or discord and we had to unblock their IPs. When I get home I will send a message to our project lead and have them check if your IP is still blocked.

No pihole or adblocker setup. I've shot you a DM like you asked. I'm curious if I'm one of those IPs. Would definitely explain it lol.
