Title: Blockchain.info banned my Ip?
Post by: KaozTiposta on December 15, 2014, 04:47:55 PM
I'm trying to access my blockchain.info (https://blockchain.info) wallet but the page says :

Quote
Error 1006 Ray ID: 1994191f6dae06c4
Access denied
What happened?
The owner of this website (blockchain.info) has banned your IP address (*.*.*.*).

CloudFlare Ray ID: 1994191f6dae06c4 • Your IP: *.*.*.* • Performance & security by CloudFlare

I can access using ZenMate plugin but I would like to know why they ban my Ip? I'm connecting over 3g.

Try to connect the site through a VPN server.And send a email to them I guess you will soon get a reply.

You sure you wasen't ddosing them or anything ? that Cloudflare protection is basically anti-ddos protection which block IP's with threats

Try contacting them over support or twitter if no luck.  Or just use IP changer plugin for a few days see if anyone else complains coming from your location.

Someone else using the same ISP as you tried to DDoS a cloudflare protected website. 3G internet providers often share the same IP with multiple subscribers. You can try contacting blockchain or cloudflare if you want your IP unbanned, or you can use a proxy/Tor to access it.

It could be just temporary. Your ISP could be unbanned in a few days.

Sometimes 3G ip adresees are NATted and shared by thousands of other users. It might be somebody else causing the problems.

Agree but best solution is to email cloudflare and ask why his ip is banned.

Not sure if this is just a coincidence.  But my IP was blocked yesterday.  :o

Of course, I had been using the web interface quite a lot the last days. But it was before I even started to transfer 500 bitcoins from various blockchain.info accounts into my wallet. 8)

Today it is working again (still same IP).

I get this same message when trying to connect while I am connected to my VPN. It is usually resolved by changing the VPN gateway.

I would think they would just make you solve a cloudflare puzzle if traffic from your IP address looks like you are trying to launch some kind of attack

Try a VPN.

I just checked and site is opening. Also, fortunately I was not doing anything bad.

I've seen them.  :)

Something is definitely wrong with Blockchain.info and cloudflare :( Got the same blocked IP error 1006. All I did was open 3 wallets within maybe 20 minutes. Contacted Cloudflare but they replied that I should contact the site owner because only they can discuss this issue with Cloudflare. So in these cases contacting Cloudflare is useless.

Now that I see I am not the only one and that this is a recent issues in the last few days, I think that their configuration is a tad bit too strict. I opened like 30-40 pages in 30 minutes at best and I got banned :(

* I am using a normal cable IP, not shared nor random (unless the router resets which is rare).
