Very Odd issues.
Can connect on my phone on WiFi on a router using IPv4 but not IPv6. Can't connect on my laptop on either router unless I deploy VPN.
Something on DR1 is rejecting connections not allowing access
Something has changed on your protocols or service provider or change in servers perhaps and not returning handshakes ?

I’ll forward your message to Waitman

i'm writing because word delancer was mentioned :) and as usual we are blamed on all the problems of the world 🙃 so i have to write some geeky stuff.

first of all there is no blocking from delancer side.

second i see that domain dr1.com seem to resolve to IPv4 only so IPv6 is not involved.

and third just seating here watching the website i noticed i would get different ip address for dr1.com domain

% host dr1.com
dr1.com has address 72.52.179.174
dr1.com mail is handled by 0 mail.nickstel.com.

then half and hour later it's like this:

% host dr1.com
dr1.com has address 142.93.195.221
dr1.com mail is handled by 30 e3244d8d.23.ik2.eu.
dr1.com mail is handled by 20 e3244d8d.22.ik2.io.
dr1.com mail is handled by 10 e3244d8d.21.ik2.com.

also the domain name has very low TTL means record might change every 2-5 minutes i get this information here:

% dig dr1.com

; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> dr1.com
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 23559
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 4, ADDITIONAL: 9

;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION:
; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 4096
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;dr1.com. IN A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
dr1.com. 99 IN A 142.93.195.221

that number 99 means this information expires in 99 seconds.

there is something going on with domain records it appears to be working when ip address is 142.93.195.221.

Site is being moved or something. it maybe working when you switch to mobile because DNS record hasn't updated yet.

Cheers,

Sounds like they need to hire you to fix their Chinese server

Reply from Waitman:

“We have not changed anything. the dr1.com server only supports ipv4 and has not been changed for years. people using ipv6 can access because ISPs automatically switch to IPv4 at their gateway. maybe we can add ipv6 on the server i will check”
