Firewalls

[rschofield]

Hello Everyone!

I recently discovered that a network in the UK was blocking my site through a firewall... big problem. I'm working with that network to get my site unblocked, but I'm afraid there are more firewalls out there preventing potential traffic from reaching my site. Anyone know how I could go about pinging individual networks on a large scale instead of just the routing servers?

thanks for any insight!

Well, you need to determine why they would be blocking you in the first place. How do you know there are more?

I know of two - the one we are currently working with in the UK, and a small country in the middle east.

The site is a social networking site, and with user generated content sometimes images or text can cross the "mature" line. But we are do our best to monitor content and keep it clean.
