Normally will discreetly browse CRT or BS in the chat room while waiting for my flight home, noticed the changed the wifi some at the airport. But using the wifi there I was unable to access CRT kept saying forbidden. All other websites I could access just fine. Was tried on another phone with the same results. Has anyone else noticed this?

Did you try the snack bar's wifi ------up the escalator on the departure level, before you go through security?

I forget the password, but the snack bar will give you the password if you ask-----or ask another user near the snack bar.

Really? So you've surfed more then 1 since you been at the airport and the airport wifi blocked your adult sites? I wonder how they do that? Any IP guys know?

I'm no IT guy, but I think that the blocking is easy to do.....and commonly done.

I was blocked-out of CRT at the courthouse wifi in Florida yesterday. What a boring jury duty it was. :evil:

Yes Rac, but SanTe was able to post from there, apparently.

I just couldn't get on it at all. Then I got this far. But most of it is down or seems to be.

Get a cheap VPN tunnel which you should have anyway if you use public WIFI.

I wasn't able to post via wifi. I don't think I even posted from the airport but if I did it was via cellular data.

It's an easy firewall block.. If you don't want to pay for a VPN and you have a computer at home, get logmein. It's free.
