Hey all
When trying to access one of my websites (hosted in TX USA) i get a timed out, this started happening last night, and this is the second time ive had this issue with Telstra NBN, even though i swapped servers and has a new IP and DNS... Last time after a month it just worked again like magic (no idea why how what yeah) but now im here again same issue somehow. Love any thoughts or advice.. i might just have to move hosting company but its not their fault this is not server side im 99% sure
Problem solving i have tried so far
Pros
*Using Mobile Data Optus fixes issue (but i need Bigpond to work)
*Using a VPN on Bigpond NBN fixes the issue.. (but i shouldn't have to do that plus its slow)
*Asked Friend with bigpond NBN in another town and works fine for him
*contacted host support they could not find an issue and suggested it was the router or ISP
Cons
*Tried changing DNS on IPv4 and IPv6 to both 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4 & 1.1.1.1 / 1.0.0.1 no help though same issues (also did restart computer)
*Tried various Browsers Chrome, Firefox, IE, No help.. (Tor works though cause ip change)
*Tried resetting modem 8x.. Different Telstra IP each time did not help
*Check router setting cant see anything blocking it, checked settings on PC no proxy or firewall blocking it
*Tried 2 tablets 2 phones 3 laptops and a workstation PC all on WIFI and Ethernet all time out and wont connect
*options left brickwall and pulling hair
Details

okamicreativesolutions.com IP 158.69.118.186 jupiter.floathosting.com.
ziptiescommunity.com IP 158.69.118.186 jupiter.floathosting.com
Thanks for your time and any thoughts.. im really stumped
did find one small clue that might play a part but again its only me with this issue so its not server side but ill drop this here also.. its just a high retry value lol probably not even remotely relevant im just clutching for straws now lol

Re: My Websites (same hosting server) Time out and cant access them without a VPN
but didnt seem to work unless i did it wrong? Maybe i am blocked server side?
from excessive use with FTP and refreshing pages? they claim no issue their end but

i fixed the hosts file up but no luck still..im thinking ive been locked out server side maybe ill wait to hear back.. but last time this same thing happened it went on for months till it just magically fixed itself oneday.. but both times it happened when i was doing heavy maintenance so that has to be something to do with it
