Website blocked on RAX-50
Beginning on 10-17-25 I began receiving this message when attempting to access https://www.riil.org/: This IP Address has been blocked. Please contact support if you believe you have received thi...
Could you post a screen shot of this message? Does the Netgear app show that any version of Armor or Smart Parental Controls is installed on the RAX50?
Hi I am attaching a screenshot of the error I receive when trying to navigate to https://www.riil.org/. Interestingly, the URL changes to riil.org/WebBot.aspx. It does not look like Parental Controls or Armor are installed/setup because when I tap those entries in the Nighthawk app I am prompted to sign up.
Interestingly, the URL changes to riil.org/WebBot.aspx
That URL exists on riil.org, so the block is being done from their web server - not your router.
What happens if you go to the address bar and manually remove the /WebBot/aspx (and then hit return) ? If the problem disappears, then perhaps autocomplete is somehow getting in the way.
As CrimpOn suggests: If it still happens, you should contact the school. They might have blocked your IP for some reason (before it was assigned to you), and never removed the block.
Same issue if I remove the /WebBot/aspx and attempt to hit the site again. Looks like I'll have to reach out to the Rhode Island Interscholastic League to see why I'm blocked. Thank you.
