    Default IP Banned

    Was travelling in LA last week and tried to get on DF with my netbook with the hotel wifi and all I kept getting was " your IP is banned" any ideas?

    hard coded IP?
    You would need DHCP enabled to use Hotel Wifi as they have a different address range in the States to over here.

    We ban ranges from where we get a lot of spammers.
    There are 3 types of people in the world - those who make things happen, those who watch things happen; and those who wondered what happened.
