The RIN IP ranges have recently been removed so I'm guessing that's what's causing your problems.

We're currently looking into this to try to see if there are any alternative measures we can use.

It's a trial.
If I had sufficient forewarning about this then I would have notified everyone in advance. There was a bit of confusion though following discussion as to whether or not RIN should be on the allowed list.
The confusion arose because most of us were under the impression that the ranges were not currently allowed and that we were discussing having them added. In reality the opposite was true, the ranges were already in the list and had to be removed.
Because we didn't think they were there in the first place, we didn't envisage any problems.
It would have been nice to have let you guys know, I agree but at the end of the day both RIN and the Supernews server are trial platforms and the normal PlusNet news server was operable throughout.

On this occasion, it was an oversight as we didn't think the RIN IPs were allowed in the first place and it was a quick action to remove them. You asked the question of us here - and we answered.
The BBC have been running an iplayer trial for some time now. Initially, everytime I logged in they would have changed something, moved something, changed how something worked etc... They're continually working on it. They didn't notify me that they were making changes but I didn't expect them to. I expected them to tinker...

This is currently undecided and is currently being discussed.
Once we have more details we'll be sure to let you know.

You'll still be able to access news.plus.net on RIN. This is only regarding the Supernews news service which is currently in a trial state.
