I have sent emails to support and admin@stargatewars.com but thought I would post here as well.
Sometime in the last two years mediacom bought a range of IP addresses that were formerly used for private addressing. From what I've read, it was so they could stop leasing IP from AT&T. over a month ago, when my cable modem got reset during a power outage, I got one of the new addresses.
(it's a 173.*.*.* range.) since that time, I have not been able to connect to gatewars.com or herebegames.com from my home. I can connect from where I work, and other places.
The technician at Mediacom said that some services have not updated their DNS to allow connections from this range that was recently made public. I am not sure if this is a firewall issue, a DNS issue or what, but it's certainly localized to gatewars. I have not had any other issues on the web.
If this could be looked into I would appreciate it, and if anyone knows of a solution I can use on my end other than a public proxy that would be great too.
