403 Forbidden Errors

#1 Postby kevin » Thu Jun 05, 2025 2:45 am

Hi everyone,

The last few weeks I keep getting 403 - Forbidden errors which prevent me from reaching the website. It's now so bad that I can't access Storm2k like 50% of the time. And sometimes without changing anything it does suddenly work. I am now on my phone's mobile data and there it does work so it might be something IP or Wifi related. Anyone experiencing the same thing or does someone know how to fix it?

Kind regards,
Kevin

Mine is now doing this as well out of the blue. Any suggestions? Using Chrome or Edge, same thing. Works fine on mobile data but not when I'm on wifi.

Is it still occurring for you?

Mine still had the same issue, but only when I was connected to one of the wifi networks. This was suddenly resolved about one or two weeks ago, so now everything is back to normal.

It is, it's the craziest thing. On my personal laptop, desktop and phone at home, on my wifi, 403 error. But using my work laptop, same wifi, it works. I know the internet goes through some type of filter or firewall for work, but it's not an explicit vpn. On my previous work laptop (when I posted originally) it worked on that one too.

This also happens to me, if I’m on my home WiFi network I get that error, but if I disconnect and use my phones data I can access it with no issues.
