Unable to access http://asuswrt.lostrealm.ca/ when using PIA VPN

[Dr Nick]

Is there any reason why I can't access http://asuswrt.lostrealm.ca/ or any of the sub pages while using PIAs VPN?

According to PIA it would appear all of its IP addresses are blocked?

I do not block anything on my end. Since the only change I've done recently was move my DNS to Cloudflare, it's possible that Cloudflare's DNS block PIA. In which case there's nothing I can do.

Ok, thank you for responding. I'll contact PIA again.

I have noticed the same problem.

FWIW, same here

One computer on my network has everything directed through VPN (PIA) and cannot access asuswrt.lostrealm.ca
All other computers on the network go direct to WAN and asuswrt.lostrealm.ca works as expected.

Guys, as I said, there's nothing I can do about it. I don't personally actively block anything.

It'll be Cloudflare vs VPN provider. I had the same thing happen with TorGuard on a number of sites. I contacted TorGuard and they got it sorted on their end so that Cloudflare wasn't blocking them.

Thing is, I don't use Cloudflare in front of my website. I only use it to host my DNS zone, and in front of the firmware update server (which is a completely different server than the website). That would imply that they also block the PIA IPs from accessing their authoritative nameservers.

FWIW, I just noticed that PIA now successfully connects to: https://asuswrt.lostrealm.ca/

I tested this via three different PIA VPN connections using US based servers, all without errors.

Yep, I'm getting a connection through the UK servers now.

Is it broken again? Can't get through using the Canadian server.

 

[Dr Nick]

Yeah, same here, again.

I used IxQuick proxy to get around the block and downloaded the firmware from the Sourceforge link.

VPN wouldn't connect on 380.65, kept seeing "openvpn[933]: --mtu-disc is not supported on this OS" in the system log. pulling it out of the custom config fixed the issue.

This account has been abandoned.

It works again. Using PIA canada server to access lostrealm.ca

Working again, at this moment, via PIA US Texas as well. It's kinda weird that this is an off again, on again issue.
