Meizume blocked in China?

Greetings all, I've been unable to connect for several days through my normal connections (China Telecom DSL at home or 3G card with laptop). Presently I am connected through my company's portal at work. Any other users experiencing this problem?

what happens if you enter the following command in a dos prompt?

Code:

ping www.meizume.com

Does it translate to the host ip? (199.27.135.100)

Thanks for your suggestion.

It looks like it does translate to the proper IP but I get timeout messages; I think it attempts to send 4 data packets. All are reported lost.

As another test, I pinged youtube, a well known blocked site here. This appears to get a normal reply.

As a final test, I pinged facebook. This reports "destination unreachable" and drops 3 of the 4 test packets.

These tests were made using the 3G card.
Not sure how to interpret this or what else to try. Further suggestions are welcome, thanks.

okaj, if the default 4 packages provide you with a loss on the line it can mean anything. (for instance you might have a degraded signal to the provider, you are using a faulty cable, there is loss in transit,...)

what happens if you try a traceroute?
for windows :

Code:

tracert www.meizume.com

for *nix :

Code:

traceroute www.meizume.com

I´d say past the results here.
What you´ll get is the path your data follows while accesing meizume.com webserver. This might indicate at what server/location the error occures.

i am pretty new on this forum, but i remember i could access it without any problem before.
But it has been "blocked" for a couple of weeks now, i can only access it with a VPN. (i am from guangzhou).

Oh no, this doesn't sound good.

i just did a reverse dns to view the other websites hosted in the same IP, and i can only access 2 out of 10 :
w w w.ip-adress.com/reverse_ip/meizume.com

It seems there is a problem with the server. Maybe the owner can ask godaddy to migrate the account to another server ?

I had similar problems in the past with meizume, there was a huge loss on the route to the webserver from meizume & I informed error about it.
Few days later it was solved, not sure if error did something on it.

Since 7 days I can´t access MeizuMe without a proxy.

Thanks for all the feedback.
Attached is the result of the tracert

ok, I would contact your ISP and provide them with this information.
If i try to acces this server I get an average respond of about 300 ms.
This is very high. When following it with a traceroute & checking Ripe it seems to be some backbone from Chinatelecom that has issue's.

However I also notice that the IP isn't assigned to a user/company, maybe this is the mighty Chinese firewall..

@bai jiu you might chec it with a tracert too, if it blocks on the same ip ...

It blocks on a different IP for me :

202.97.33.118 reports: Destination host unreachable.

Indeed, the IP is different, but it is also part of China Telecom their backbone.
doing a lookup i get this :
Taoyuan Xian Beihou 202.97.33.118
Taoyuan Xian Beihou 202.97.35.154

So I am sure they are related to eachother.

Best thing you guys can do is contact them, explain the problem & provide them with the trace routes / ping examples to solve it asap.

That 's true ! I am now at Beijing, I cann't connect meizume for half a mouth, I changed my VPN and then it does

I'll try changing some settings. Hopefully, it will once again grant our users in China access.

Edit: Please try again in 24 hours and report back (users in China).

no problem, it finally works again! im in shanghai, and today is the first time its working again

Glad to hear that!

It is working again in my location (Wuxi)! Many thanks to all!

Not yet here in Guangzhou.

its working again in guangzhou too now. Thanks
