Cannot access an ISP blocked site via mx linux v21 (32bits)
Posted: Sat Feb 17, 2024 5:00 pm
Here goes my linux box information...
I'm unable to access a site that is blocked by my ISP provider. I changed my DNS servers IPs, by changing the primary and secondary DNS server IPs (those can be altered in the "Edit the connections" from the WiFi icon under the "IPv4 Settings" tab). I can confirm that the DNS did change because I can see the results in www.dnsleaktest.com. But still no access.
On the other hand, my system is dual boot and I have windows 7 in the other partition. Guess what. I changed the DNS servers (altering the IPv4 properties) and with that I can access the site that is still blocked from mx linux.
So, what do I have to do in MX Linux to gain access to the blocked site?
Thank you!
