Router blocking 1 site? Gateway model WGR 200

RTFM (pages 43-46 to be precise).

I'd read the manual if I had it. I'm helping out a friend who threw out the manual... Could you please elaborate?

Thanks,

First hit.

Have you tried doing a hard reset of the router? That may fix your problem.

If that doesn't do the trick for you, then you might have to flash the router with its firmware, because the firmware can be sick.

That's usually the case when you have the problem that you're having where a site or sites cannot be accessed by machine or machines behind a router is that the firmware is or has become corrupted.

Think about it, if you have not set any rules yourself to block a site, then how do you think the router is going to just start making up a rules to block a site, unless you created the rules?

On the other hand, someone could have hacked the router to set rules to block a site, but I doubt that one.

There is something wrong with the router's functions.

Good points. I didn't think about that. My friend did not add any rules (she didn't even know how to access the router settings). I will try resetting the router. If that doesn't fix it, I'll try the firmware upgrade.

Thanks a lot,

Ed
