      I can use a remote system (not on my net) and can login from it.

      Well, that would make sense if your WAN address is blocked. The remote system isn't blocked.

      Also in my case I can't even get to a login page...

      In the other guys' case, they were blocking his IP at the external firewall so he didn't get a login page either.

      That's interesting...
      Maybe then it's my case.

      Do you know by chance how many say bad requests did it take to get it blocked ? and how long was it blocked ?

        @chudak That depends entirely on whatever software they're using to monitor that. I have no idea. It could be fail2ban or something else. Unless you are using a user account to login to that website, his case would not apply to you. Perhaps you're blocked for another reason? We haven't yet established that you're being blocked, only that they do not respond to you. If you have a VPN (seriously, get one they're like $5/month) you could go there via your tunnel and see if it just works. Contact the site's host and ask them if you're blocked.

          Forgot to mention that it did work via VPN tunnel

          Thx
