Range block
.

Hmm, I thought maybe it was blocked as an open proxy, but according to this, the range was blocked on 11 March, presumably due to an IP hopping sockpuppet. Is that whole range dedicated to the VPN, or just one IP address? I'll ask the blocking admin if s/he can shed some light. ~Amatulić (talk) 19:55, 19 March 2012 (UTC)


 * I think it's blocked the whole VPN, as if I try it on my friends login it doesn't appear to work either. I now have an account as I created it from a university computer with therefore a different IP and thought I could then just use that to log in, and just want to use that. Im not asking account creation to be lifted, or to be able to edit as an IP user. Otherwise I would only be able to edit away from my main computer (Tobias10 (talk) 20:07, 19 March 2012 (UTC)).


 * Understood &mdash; and your account is not blocked. But my question was whether the VPN system at your university uses the entire /24 range (256 IP addresses from 129.215.4.0 to 129.215.4.255) or just a few IP addresses in it? If the VPN system is using just one or just a few IP addresses, then holes could be poked in the larger block. ~Amatulić (talk) 21:00, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Im not really sure, it appears that the client and server addresses are slightly different, if that's any help, but not sure whether it uses the full range(Tobias10 (talk) 21:18, 19 March 2012 (UTC)).
