Steamgifts is being blocked by supernatural forces. (Help) [SOLVED... for now] Thanks cg!

So yeah, this site keeps getting blocked, once I restart the router it works fine for a few hours, but then it gets blocked again, and can't access to it no matter what. I've tried with all the possible gadgets with WiFi connection, mobile phone, tablet, etc. and still, so it must be in the WiFi itself.

The only programs that could affect this are avast! free, and Malwarebytes Pro, any idea why this happens?
It only happens with steamgifts as far as I know.

Have you tried an alternative browser?

Yep, same thing.
I tried with mobile phones, tablet, the laptop, and still the same, so it's not a browser related thing.

Disable each program one by one, trying the site in between each disabling. That way you'll at least be able to see which program it is causing the problem.

I'll try that, it was the most tiresome option, but I'll do so. Keep in mind that I can't log in anyway from the phone or another PC which is using the WiFi. So... supernatural forces most likely.

Done, rinsed, repeated. Every single time.
But it still happens after a while.

Are you sure it's only SteamGifts that's being blocked? I don't see how software on your PC could be screwing up your router, unless it's directly manipulating settings within your router. It would make sense if only the PC was having issues accessing SG, but Avast and Malwarebytes shouldn't be stopping your phone and tablet and such from accessing specific sites over the wifi.

Exactly my thoughts, but I really can't think of anything else.

Is your router setup with access codes so your neighbors can't "borrow" your connection? That's about the only thing I can think of off the top of my head, people bogging down your internet or something. That or your router is taking a crap, heh. Better still, what is the brand/model of your router? Maybe we can dig something up on it.

Well, I was going to do this, but, surprisingly, the website is working since I started the thread.

I hope it keeps up this way.

I can freely log in from any other internet source that isn't my router.

There's a chance your IP was blocked by our firewall for suspicious activity. Drop me an email, inbox@steamgifts.com, with the IP of your home router, and I'll look into it.
