Router blocking one domain
This is the oddest thing I've ever encountered. My Nighthawk X4 AC2350 blocks beckwithmansion.com (which I own). I've eleminated it being a website, hosting, ISP or computer problem. It all points...
It went away as mysteriously as it happened.
I have a theory... My theory is it had nothing to do with the router, and everything to do with my ISP and HTTP'ing to my webhost.
Here's the latest...
Pushed and held the reset button for well over 7 seconds as the manual recommends for factory setting.
That accomplished nothing. I still cannot get to beckwithmansion.com through this router.
Hi dbwalton,
Try changing the MTU size of the router.

What is the exact error message when trying to access it?
Yup, tried all of that.
The message from Chrome is,
This site can’t be reached
beckwithmansion.com took too long to respond.
Other browsers receive timeout errors too.
Now, what does work is if I go through a proxy server. Also, if I swap out my Netgear router for my Dlink router, the Dlink router gets there just fine.
Hi dbwalton,
Let me check on this with and will get back to you.
