Freetoasthost database down (02-Feb-26

Hi Admins, 
Just checking if there is a current issue with access to the Freetoasthost database? 
I have tried to access my own FTH club website and those of some other local clubs that I helped set-up.

These local clubs just use the FTH websites, via pseudo .com forwarding web addresses, for basic marketing and
club/area member information purposes only and not for internal purposes such as club membership and workshop meeting management, etc.

All the local clubs involved are not responding to basic click inquiries right now - hopefully this is just a temp issue but it seems to be a
periodic even in recent times.

Best of luck with the FTH 4 development

Tom O'Keeffe (Website Admin, Limerick Toastmasters club# 5342, Limerick City, Ireland)

All FTH websites are working perfectly.
5342.toastmastersclubs.org/ is working correctly.

If you are using a VPN turn it off, a lot of VPN are blocked for  misuse.
The IP you are using 95.45.91.54 is currently blocked for high traffic.

 

OK Brian

I guess we will have to wait to see when we can click on the club (FTH) website again, as its currently not available on this side of the Atlantic,
either on the Google Chrome or Bing search engines and using the direct URLs from FTH or those of the pseudo redirection websites - see attached for ref.


BTW, I never use a VPN when accessing my club website or when checking if local people in the Limerick area can access it
(usually they can and do - due to the power of SEO).
In addition, I have no idea as to why FTH has an issue with my IP address  - must be the reason why I get that annoying auto-generated
(unrecognised device) notice Email each time I access the club website as website admin. 

Regards,
Tom O'Keeffe

Your IP address is generating thousands of hits on the FTH server daily.
What are you doing? 
Are you running any scripts against the FTH server?
You are the only person with the issue, as it is only your single IP that has been blocked.
