My router not allowing me to access Warrior Forum...

So I recently have not been able to access warrior forum from my home. At first I thought it was something on my computer because I was able to check it on my phone. Then when I went to a friends house I was able to access it from my computer.

Is my router blocking warrior forum? How do I fix it?

I have ATT Uverse by the way...

    What message do you get while connecting to warriorforum?

    Another thing, have you tried clearing cookies, cache or trying another browser?

    Yet another, does it open in a secure connection ( https) while opening?

    If you can access other websites there, it is NOT the port. That probably leaves ITS IP, or yours.

    I DOUBT AT&T is blocking the IP address. Try THIS:

    C:\>ping www.warriorforum.com

    You SHOULD get:

    Pinging www.warriorforum.com [174.37.60.234] with 32 bytes of data:
    Reply from 174.37.60.234: bytes=32 time=57ms TTL=51
    Reply from 174.37.60.234: bytes=32 time=54ms TTL=51
    Reply from 174.37.60.234: bytes=32 time=56ms TTL=51
    Reply from 174.37.60.234: bytes=32 time=55ms TTL=51

    Ping statistics for 174.37.60.234:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
    Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 54ms, Maximum = 57ms, Average = 55ms

    ALL the numbers can be different, BUT:

    1. The IP should probably be: 174.37.60.234
    2. the sent and received packets should be the same number, and over 0.

    If you see that, AT&T is NOT blocking the IP. If you DON'T see it, they ARE! Talk to THEM!

    Are you getting an error message of some sort? Have you been spamming? If so, the forum may have blocked your ip. Of course twister is right that it could be the cache or the browser. One of the latest SCAMS being done by MANY is to insert plugins into browsers. MOST cause some sort of problem.

    Thanks, I have not been spamming and post very sparingly. I pinged the site and it showed everything you posted. So I'm not sure what is going on.

    I attached an image of what it is saying when I go to the site.

    Like I said. It is only from my apartment. If I go anywhere else it loads from that same computer. >.<

      Out of curiosity, yesterday, I tried a special popular proxy against warriorforum. It FAILED! I tried google, and it WORKED. I tried the warrior forum before and after the test WITHOUT the proxy, and it worked. So some IPs WILL fail on warrior forum.

      Anyway, it looks like WF IS rejecting the connection.
