Not sure if this is the place for this but can't find anywhere else. I've been trying for a few weeks to set up Instagram. Should be simple but from the number of people having similar issues, at least I know I'm not alone.

Finally thought I'd made it, but now get this message:

The IP address that you are using has been flagged as an open proxy. If you believe this to be incorrect, please visit https://help.instagram.com/

Tried a number of supposed solutions - but none work for me. I haven't set up a separate proxy server - surely I shouldn't need to? My wife has set up Instagram on her system - it's just mine that doesn't work.

Going to the help site suggested is a big joke - again I'm not the only one to find this.

If anyone has some solutions that might work I'd be so grateful.
