Connectivity blocked by ISP

4.5

Your internet provider is intentionally restricting access to certain sites or services.

Symptoms
  • "Site blocked by provider"
  • Specific apps (Tor, P2P) don't work
  • DNS redirection
Possible Causes
  • Legal requirements
  • Parental controls
  • Copyright enforcement

Step-by-Step Fix

1

Use a VPN

Encrypt your traffic so the ISP cannot see what sites you are visiting.

2

Change DNS

ISPs often block sites via DNS; use 1.1.1.1 to bypass simple blocks.

3

Check Account Controls

Ensure "Family Shield" or "Safe Search" isn't enabled on your ISP account page.

When to See a Technician

ISPs in some countries are legally required to block certain categories of websites.
