bkkmadness Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Best approach to fix the problem is get a large army together, stage a coup, then you can do whatever you want. When you're boss of Thailand don't forget to unblock youtube for us, cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdnvic Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Are you getting a message that it's blocked (ICT), or can you just not reach the site(DNS Troubles)? If it's the second, try using Open DNS. If it's the first you need to go to http://www.mict.go.th/home/home.aspx and get someone who speaks and reads Thai to go through the process of finding out why the site is blocked, and what needs to be done to rectify it. What kind of website is it anyway? (don't paste the url here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totster Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Moved to internet/tech section btw... It makes me wonder what the content of your sites are.. or is it best not to ask.. totster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing how many threads say this site or that site is blocked... but when I try them, they invariably seem to open just fine, which tends to make me think that a lot of these "blockages" are not "blockages" at all, but simply Net glitches of one sort or another.

cdnvic Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 If it's officially blocked you'll see this: It leads to their site at http://ict.cyberclean.org/ which you will need a translator for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 What you get to see depends very much on which ISP you are using. TT&T's Maxnet for example gives following screen for most blocked websites: And quite a few other sites are blocked even sneakier, first the DNS resolves the URL, page starts loading but just keeps in that state. Nothing will come through, making it seem the webhost has a problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crushdepth Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 If it's the second, try using Open DNS. Thanks for that. I was just going to post asking why DNS in Thailand so appallingly bad (try online gaming when there is a 15 second lag between a click and an anything happening!). Hopefully this will let me avoid the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinLOS Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 If it's officially blocked you'll see this: It leads to their site at http://ict.cyberclean.org/ which you will need a translator for. That vast majority of my blocked sites dont redirect top this page.. Some do but most (deffo blocked) dont.. And quite a few other sites are blocked even sneakier, first the DNS resolves the URL, page starts loading but just keeps in that state. Nothing will come through, making it seem the webhost has a problem... Thats what most do for me on TOT.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bram Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 (edited) As I was not even able to access my internet banking website today because the poor international internet connections today i did the following thing: i setup a vpn connection whit a friends router back in my home country (Holland) and now the connection is a bit slower of course but i am able to access all websites also youtube because i am using my friends dutch gateway. I know not everyone has a friend back home whit a vpn open for them but the ones who do might be happy whit this trick.

JoeInSurin Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 A lot of sites are blocked on my MaxNet DSL but I can get everything including Youtube on my Blackberry with service through True. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crushdepth Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Suggest you try the opendns link that cdnvic posted above - it has sorted most of my problems re. slow lookups => slow loading. Re. your VPN tunnel, if you are tunnelling to another computer within Thailand it won't help (Youtube is still banned and it isn't a DNS problem).
