Also works with Lyra (NL). I have noticed it didn't work with some of the other Dutch servers though - they resolve to a different domain name (leaseweb).

Hello!

 

Can you please specify which NL servers at your convenience? We have tested them and everything seems fine with schneier.com resolving correctly into 204.11.246.48

 

Kind regards

I noticed the problem one or two weeks ago - I don't remember which servers I was using, unfortunately, but I was connecting through the .nl server pool.

 

The domain did resolve, IIRC, but the site would not load when using Air. If it works with all servers now, it could have been a temporary anti-spam thing I suppose.

Oh, I realize now that I gave a confusing reply.

 

What I meant was that when I was using the AirVPN servers whose IPs resolve to something involving "leaseweb", it didn't work. I am now using Lyra (which is the only Dutch server that is under a different domain name) and it works.

 

So I suspected that it could be related, say if modwest is blocking certain domain names from access. (It has happened to me before, in exactly this way.)

 

schneier.com always resolved to the same IP, as far as I know.
