Starbucks AT&T Wifi #422

This is odd, but I'm curious if anyone else is having trouble reaching http://feedbin.me from the free wifi at Starbucks (or other AT&T wifi locations).

I've had this problem since December in multiple Starbucks locations, but I still can access it over http://184.173.139.245

Update: It appears to be all .me domain names.

Hi @JakeBilbrey,

This is an AT&T WiFi DNS issue that affects the entire .me top level domain.

I just tried contacting AT&T WiFi support. This time they acknowledged the issue, but said the best way to get it resolved would be to speak with the Starbucks manager at the location where you are experiencing the issue. Tell the manager to get in touch with AT&T WiFi at 888-888-7520 and have them escalate ticket number 178973186.

This will bring the ticket to the attention of the AT&T WiFi operations team.

@benubois @r38y Awesome! Thanks guys!

As a work around it might be possible to access Feedbin when on AT&T WiFi by adding this to your /etc/hosts file:

184.173.139.245 feedbin.me

all .me domains don't work for me I tried Google DNS and Open DNS - still not working

Feedbin has moved to feedbin.com so hopefully this will no longer be an issue as long as you update your bookmarks or make sure to type in the .com.
