Hello!
While we're on the subject, have I got a weird one to tell YOU folks about!
It's not an issue with LL at all, but when I try to go to www.netii.net (or any websites hosted there) on my AT&T U-Verse (home) connection, it times out.
Several other free hosting sites won't let me get further than successfully logging in, or refuse to display the Captcha everybody's wanting completed to create accounts nowadays. However, when I tether my lappy to my 4G phone and use ITS wireless connection (also AT&T), everything works just fine.
By doing pings and traceroutes, I pretty much know what the issue is. My access to these sites is being blocked by a misconfigured/malfunctioning AT&T router two hops up from me. I have even the IP address of the bum router.
A tech has been dispatched, but changing the gateway/router HERE isn't going to fix this issue. The battle's going to be convincing them the problem is upstream from here...

A gun in your hand is worth more than a whole police force on the phone.
