It's probably their websites blocking other regions. Not an afrihost issue.
Try with a VPN through a UK server and it should work. If she working in the UK, they should arrange that for her.

I tried with VPN and an aws ec2 instance but both were still blocked.

TestLocally

Use geolocation to take screenshots from different countries around the world, so you can see the impact of your localization efforts
testlocal.ly testlocal.ly

You get similar websites that can test how the site looks overseas. It's definitely not an isp problem. It's the websites blocking too aggressively / blocking other regions

Is there or are there issues with the JHB NLD from CPT.

Seems every evening the routing switches around 8pm until 11pm and we experience sluggish internet.

Evening gents,

I'm trying to help out my cousin that is in Edgemead in Western Cape on your service. She remote works for a UK company and needs to access these URLS but is getting blocked.

I was able to work around the first two with CloudFlare Warp, but Ticketweb.uk just gives a blank screen. I am getting the same on my IP also WC (not sure if AH does regional IP's on vuma)

Ticketmaster.co.uk
Axs.com/uk
Ticketweb.uk

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. She did reach out to the sites and was basically fobbed off and told it was her ISP at fault.

She is on 102.182.245.x range and I am on 165.73.103.x

Happy to do any testing needed.

Ticketmaster seems to be working now but the other two have both stopped from around the last 3 weeks. Individually reaching out to the sites seem to not get traction but apparently an ISP requesting does.

Please can you assist as popular VPN's etc. are obviously blocked for botting the tickets.

Hi.

Please drop me a PM with the email address of the account linked to the line in question.
 
@AfriNatic Are you aware of any issues with google traffic's return path coming back via international?
Not sure if this only affects fixed lte, or all your ip blocks.

Down for me in Durban, North Coast. Metrofibre, AH. Down from early hours of the morning, not sure if linked to cloudflare outage. Hop times out just after an IANA server. 1000123187.png
