I'm trying to access MyIR from my home connection, but I can't seem to establish any connections to services.ird.govt.nz at all, over LTE via Skinny or Google Fi I can just fine. Looks like all traffic is being dropped just after hitting Spark Digital.

Anyone else on 2degrees seeing this?

Connecting via PIA's NZ PoP allows me to access MyIR again. Still not ideal.

So it looks like I might be firewalled out. I can get to it via another one of my mirror nodes, just not via my home connection. Strange

Can you access ASB's Internet banking? I believe they use the same platform in regards of IP Reputation.

There we go :) You didn't poke a Cat, you poked a Bear. Somebody really doesn't like your IP.

Not entirely sure how I managed to poke a bear. All traffic in and out of my network is monitored and filtered, nothing untoward pops up in any of the DPI or squid logs

It's the penguin. Nobody likes it.

Replace it with hosting cats.

Penguin? Penguin? What penguin! I have a devil, and I think I might be one. The host mirror runs FreeBSD ;)

Seriously though, contact @nickmack and try to find out why your IP is blacklisted...

I can't get to either. Looks like I've been blacklisted (I can't get to ASB Online either)
