FreeToastHost Sites Unreachable Through Starlink — Connection Timeout - Club 652

1 reply · 102 views

Hello FreeToastHost Support,I'm experiencing a connectivity issue affecting multiple FreeToastHost websites, including our club's website:https://communicatorsplus.toastmastersclubs.org/I've isolated the problem to my Starlink internet connection.Diagnostic findings:
  • The website loads normally on my Mac when connected through an iPhone cellular hotspot.
  • The same Mac and browser cannot access it through Starlink.
  • The FreeToastHost sample club website is also inaccessible through Starlink.
  • DNS resolves both websites to 50.19.253.65.
  • HTTPS connections to 50.19.253.65 on TCP port 443 time out after approximately 10 seconds.
  • An independent TCP connection test using 
    nc
     also times out.
  • A traceroute successfully traverses Starlink and reaches GTT's Dallas network before subsequent hops stop responding.
  • Testing through a VPN did not restore access.
Could you please check whether your server, firewall, or hosting provider is filtering or dropping connections originating from Starlink?If no filtering is present, could you advise whether your hosting provider can investigate the network path to 50.19.253.65?My Starlink public IP address is: [INSERT PUBLIC IP]Thank you for your assistance.   Communicators Plus Club 6525

Regard,

Website works via iPhone cellular hotspot on same Mac; fails via Starlink and also failed in VPN test.




FTH does not support VPN, the majority of VPN IP have been blocked for abuse.

Please give me your internet IP when connected to starflink
use a site like https://whatismyipaddress.com/
