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.
Hi dbwalton,
Try changing the MTU size of the router.

What is the exact error message when trying to access it?
Hi dbwalton,
Let me check on this with and will get back to you.
It will remain a mystery. Yesterday it mysteriously started to work.
Hi dbwalton,
Does it still work?

I couldn't see how the router could cause this problem, but there was
this:

At that point I was mystified (and remain so). Unless somehow
someone was blocking your IP address, and it toggled in synchrony with
your inserting/removing the router. Or something like that. Didn't
seem likely. Definitely mysterious.
