Is it possible my home IP is being blocked? #147

I can see station data on tinygs.com when I use a VPN or cellular data but when I use my home network the site won't display station or satellite data. The rest of the site displays but none of the data loads. Any ideas?

The security systems on the web are quite restrictive and we know this can generate some false positives. However 99.9% of the times it actually stops real threats from bots that otherwise would increase the server load considerably.

Tu put it in perspective, the web receive requests from thousands of different ips every day and only 5 ips were banned in the last month (including the real threats) so the rate of false positives is quite low, we know it's unpleasant to get banned by mistake but none of those bans are permanent and it really contribute to keep the costs of the servers down which is key to keep this project independent and with low bureaucracy.

We are always monitoring and adjusting these systems to make them more accurate, so they are improving as time passes. :)
