Unblocking UK Routers
Is your ISP changing the settings on your router?
An increasing number of internet providers in the UK have been blocking connections to websites / servers that they don't want you to use. Internet providers are able to change the settings in your router by remotely connecting to it and activating there own firewall.You can disable these settings yourself by simply logging into your router and checking the settings. Remember, they can configure this setting remotely so they can change it back at any time.
It can take up to 2 hours for this change of setting to take effect so its important to remember to check it from time to time.
