Hey Cygwin team,
I'm getting a 403 Forbidden error when trying to access cygwin.com from my
IP (189.76.62.5). I don't mind sharing my IP because when I restart my
router, I get a new one, so no 1337 haxx0rs creating VB GUIs to immediately
h4ck my d4t4.
I went to my dad's house to test it out (he has a different ISP) and the
site works fine there, so it seems like my entire ISP (Sercomtel) is
blocked.
Quick details:
- Browser: Chrome
- OS: Fedora
- Current IP: 189.76.62.5
- ISP: Sercomtel
- Error: 403 Forbidden
I've tried restarting my router to get a new IP address, but I still can't
access the site. It seems like all IPs from my ISP are being blocked. I'm
just a regular user who needs to download some packages. Not a big deal,
all the IPs I was assigned by my ISP are pristine, 0 abuse reports, so it
is indeed quite weird.
Any chance you could check why my ISP might be blocked? Thanks!
Thank you for your attention,
Apologies for the inconvenience!
I'll refer back to the answer to a similar problem I gave recently,
which explains how to request unblocking:
