Laptop doesn't like BakaBT
« on: January 15, 2010, 02:05:32 AM »
Ok, so ever since I got my new laptop I haven't been able to access BakaBT at all. Tried using 3 different browsers (FF, IE, IE 64-bit, & Chrome) and still can't access it. It's not my ISP (or my router) doing it since I can access BakaBT just fine on my desktop. It does this everywhere I take the laptop (ie: Uni, Starbucks, etc). I also tried using the LAN instead of WiFi. And no, I don't have the page blocked. It looks like it's loading and then when it's done I'm left with a blank page.

Laptop Specs are here:

because this laptop is a brainchild of MPAA/RIAA and similar groups o.O

try the HOSTS file ( C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc ).

That's strange because I'm still able to connect to every other torrent site I use. And download from it.

[EDIT] Nope, still didn't work by adding BakaBT's IP to the HOSTS file.

[EDIT #2] OK, I now know I'm a dumba**. I forgot to restart the computer.

Sorry for the double post but I needed someone to notice this topic.

After I edited the HOSTS file I was able access BakaBT only once. Then it started to pull the same shit again. Then I edited the HOSTS file by changing the name resolution, restarting, then re-editing to the proper name resolution and restarting again. That seemed to work but I'm afraid this will happen again. Is there anything I can do to prevent this?

[EDIT] Yep, it did it again.

in the HOSTS file, add this line at the end.

95.211.6.148 bakabt.com

if this doesn't help, try ping 95.211.6.148 or ping bakabt.com

lol, I used my desktop to get on an ip identification site and get the ip, and so I made a typo while inputting  it. The 6 was a 9. -_-"

Thanks for being patient with me.
