Too many connection attempts

[ianiow]

I am getting the fololwing error message each time I press the 'see lastest posts' arrow on these forums.

"Too many connection attempts from this IP address. Please try again."

How do I change my IP address?

The IP address is the address your ISP assigns to you, probablly via NAT, that is visible to the internet form the outside. So you would probably need to change the ISP you use to connect to the internet . I've seen this today as well. I suspect it may bean issue on the Slitherine end in actuality.

If you see the message again let us know exactly what you were doing at the time and just before.
