Default Internet problems

I have a problem where at home i cannot access a couple of websites i regularly use.

This is on virgin internet.

I have tried wireless and ethernet to the router.

Done the usual router reset, tried clearing cookies etc etc

Still cant access the sites.

I can access them fine on my phone over mobile network, but on my phone i cant access them wirelessly when connected to the virgin router.

every other websit i click is fine.

Any idea why just 2 websites would be innaccesable on virgin but fine elsewhere???

they arent downloading sites, they are car forums.

On virgin, blocked sites will come up with a virgin page saying its banned.

The sites are not responding for some reason.

As per Adrians post, sounds like a routing issue. I had it a few years back with certain sites. Got fixed eventually.

You need to do some diagnostics, i.e. verifying the domain name(s) resolution and using tools like "pathping" and tracing routes, not really something an end user can do though.

More than likely ISP related, if you have someone you know with the same provider, get them to try?
