Hi All,

I'm having trouble getting to hardocp.com

Thought they might be down, but "down for everyone or just me" shows the website is up...

Google chrome gives me ERR_NAME_RESOLUTION_FAILED

Ping give me "Ping request could not find host hardocp.com. Please check the name and try again."

I'm with Spark, and its not working on my fixed line broadband (VDSL) or mobile (4g).

It was working yesterday.

Is this a spark issue?

If so can someone there fix it?

Thanks,

Dairyx

Replying to my own thread, I've tried changing the DNS to googles 8.8.8.8 and still cannot get to hardocp.com

So now I'm confused. Is it being blocked by spark?

Is it working for anyone else?

Working for me on 2degrees but they aren't behind Cloudflare from what I see.

Thanks people.

When I try to access the IP directly, it gives me a cloudflare error (cannot be accessed directly).

Working for me at work (We're our own AS but our connection is via 2 Degrees/Snap), and failing from my flat (Spark UFB)
