blocked site on bt line

hi there,

can someone please test and see if they can stream anything from nowvideo.co

more precisely this one: nowvideo.co/video/3c1f81174932e

it was working fine on my bt infinity at home but since yesterday video no longer loads.

im wondering bt has blocked this site for streaming.

video works fine at work with our hyperoptics connection and a second virgin connection.

but not on my phone with three or at home with bt.

we are using google dns.

thanks

I have BT Infinity just tried that link. The page loads press the play button and it sits on 0% does nothing.

After that I tried it with my VPN and it worked perfectly.

So I am guessing as you say BT may have blocked it.

hi guys,

just to let you know after i changed dns servers to open dns, video now loads on my bt infinity.
for some strange reasons google dns and bt dns are not letting videos to load from that site these 2 days, so i will stick with open dns for the time being.

cheers

I'm using BT dns and it's fine - well a bit stuttery even on a 75 meg Infinity line.

Are you new to BT they may have a different parental policy for new users.

Andi.

I wonder if BT do have some DNS issues here. I can't get on topcashback (dns issue) at the moment and my Hive stopped connecting (unknown reason).
