Both Firefox and Opera browsers are blocking access to woowind.org. ¿Is anyone else having this problem?

I had this problem with firefox. I thought it was a local problem.

My firefox is set up to use DNS over HTTPS. Whatever DNS server firefox uses for this seems to have forgotten where this website lives on the internet.

My firefox is set up to use DNS over HTTPS. Whatever DNS server firefox uses for this seems to have forgotten where this website lives on the internet.

I fixed this in the privacy settings by telling firefox not to use this method for this website, but instead to use the general DNS server (which should be automatically set up on your device.)

Attaching a screenshot.

I had this problem with firefox. I thought it was a local problem, but maybe not. This was what I did, and what I think it means:

My firefox is set up to use DNS over HTTPS (which is a privacy/security setting.) DNS tells your device where things are on the internet. It seems like the DNS over HTTPS has forgotten where this particular website lives on the internet.

I changed a setting in firefox privacy settings, telling firefox to use the fallback DNS if the default lookup fails. It worked for me. I won't be distressed if someone with more IT knowledge than I elaborates or corrects this. But, I'm quite certain the problem does not depend on what kind of ligature you use.

Attaching a screenshot of what I changed.

Yes, the URL for the very top page of the site is http://test.woodwind.org/ if you're trying to access he BBoard without a link of any kind.

I've just gotten in with four different browsers (one of them Firefox), so if the URL isn't your problem you might try flushing your cache.
