hellsis Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I have been on vacation down in the south for three weeks and when I come home to bangkok again it seams like my true 2mbit can´t connect to several pages. Like: www.expressen.se (a big swedish newspaper) www.sweclockers.com (an swedish computer site) and then they seams to have blocked ports which is sending traffic from clientprograms to www.betsson.com and www.pokeracesoftware.com I am irritated big time. I am going to call them and ask why but first I post here and see if it is maybe only some temporary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ignis Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I don't know about True blockin those but Hotmail page isn't working over here since last night. Appears to be a problem with people that use IE, I use Firefox no problem, tried IE and was a problem [friend phoned to tell me hotmail was not working] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 There appeared to be a major proxy problem this morning and no sites, including this, were coming up - I removed the TRUE proxy and connected direct and have not had any more problems. Have just restored using proxy and no problem so hopefully fixed. No problem using your first example of Expression.se as loaded right up, using the proxy.

lopburi3 Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 There is still something wrong with the TRUE/Asianet proxy as just had unable to connect to TV and returned to direct internet connection and all well. I am using Firefox 3 bata 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellsis Posted December 23, 2007 Author Share Posted December 23, 2007 I still have the same problem. I have talked to some friends which lives in expensive serviced apartments here in bkk and they dosent have any problem, I´m guessing they use another ISP or something..

Firefoxx Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Again folks: If they were blocking websites, you would see the usual statement of "this web is inappropriate yadda yadda yadda". If you're not seeing that, then it's just a bad configuration problem on either your side (unlikely) or their side (normal), which may or may not be fixed, since their engineers are incompetent. In other words, it's not censorship, just stupidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that True have taken to the censorship stallion and started blocking things of their own accord, I thought that the new law required that a court order was need? Since they have started this STUPDITY, I can't even acces my hotmail, seems like they are taking incompetance to new levels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkk_mike Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Try changing your DNS servers away from the True ones. (I've always found that relying as little as possible on their server configuration abilities is a good idea.) Personally, I use openDNS - just change your DNS server to 208.67.222.222, and alternate to 208.67.220.220 (the website has instructions if you don't know how) You may also have to clear the DNS cache (by "repair"ing the connection) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
