Pokerstars.com won't load

Any reason why Pokerstars.com will not load/resolve, tried both Chrome and I.E, its the only site that doesn't load.

Tried Safari just in case it was browser related and it won't load on that either.

Try using the IP directly
https://77.87.181.63 for .com
https://77.87.181.84 for .uk
this will rule out DNS issues.

The direct IP worked, although it through up a warning about it not being secure.

Re: Pokerstars.com won't load

That would be right as the IP address won't match the name in the certificate. If you're using Windows fire up a DOS prompt and enter:
ipconfig /flushdns (then press enter).
The re-try your normal URL.

Flushed the DNS but the page still won't load, just times out

Re: Pokerstars.com won't load

Not to sure what to suggest apart from a system re-start but I'm clutching a straws here. But for what it's worth when I enter pokerstars.com in Safari I get taken to .uk. Also just tried .com on Windows 8.1 using WaterFox and it works for me as well going to .uk. Shame I can't play poker!

Re: Pokerstars.com won't load

I've had this on going problem with the pokerstars.com, pokerstars.uk site for a while now, I've been in contact with customer service about it, it was resolved for a short time maybe 2 or 3 hours then reverted back. I've tried all the above XYZ to fix it, i have ran out of ideas, the daft thing is i can still load the client fine and connect fine, but if i need info off the website i can't access it. I have tried, different browsers, my tablet, mobile, my laptop. flushing dns, add in exceptions. nothing has worked. I can proxy to the site, so that tells me my connection is blocking it or there is some sort of restriction there.

Re: Pokerstars.com won't load

Both of you reporting problems are assigned IP's from similar ranges, namely 146.198.0.0/16 and 146.200.0.0/16. I wonder if the problem clears if you disconnect/reconnect until you're assigned an IP outside of these subnets? FWIW, I'm assigned an IP in the 143.159.0.0/16 block and I can access the site.

Re: Pokerstars.com won't load

It's probably the same issue causing the National Lottery site not to work with Plusnet.
Maybe they don't like gambling.

I can't access the National Lottery Site. I *can* access Pokerstars.
