Can't Access Website (iPhone)

The last few days I can’t access the site with my iPhone using wifi, yet works if I turn off wifi and use cellular. On the computer everything works. All other sites I access are fine, just here. Did something change? I also think Apple IOS was updated a few days ago too. Maybe a coincidence?
 
No issues here, I’d say this is more likely a home network / ISP issue. As Evoex suggests, try unplugging your modem/router at home for 60 seconds and rebooting everything, and reboot your phone as well, then try again and let us know if that resolves things.
 
Are you using Google Nest or Google Wifi?

I'm currently troubleshooting a situation where the router degrades over time or traffic and requires a reboot. It only affects some sites and only certain devices - ie: GTAM on Android is slow, iPhones and PCs are unaffected. YouTube on my TV is fine.

Reddit seems to confirm others having the same issue with Google Wifi/Nest.
 
I have the Google nest running on Bell internet. I will reboot the routers. I am at work now and wifi here works fine for the site.
Thanks everyone. Will report once I get home and reboot.
 
I rebooted the Google nest x3 of them. No access. Rebooted the Bell gigabyte box. No GTAm/c access. Deleted cookies and history no joy. Wonder where cache is? Seems to me if I can access the site from cellular connection and work wifi the problem must be in the modems? I hit the rest button on the Bell modem, maybe I will unplug it and see if

Odd it is only this sites. YouTube with all that video overhead works fine

Hm. I actually suspect your original IP address was blacklisted.

Rebooting the Bell box might have given you a new IP address, which let you back into GTAM.

Fibre doesn't give static IPs? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Not sure about Bell's implementation, but the actual medium (fibre, copper, wifi) is independent of the the IP assignment protocol which is done by software or firmware. You can have Static IP or Dynamically assigned IP over any medium.

Even with Google translate I couldn’t understand that 😂😂

I don't think any do? Although you'll generally maintain your IP as long as you maintain a consistent connection, rebooting your modem however will reassign a new IP. I've maintained the same IP for many months (at one point almost a year) because all my ISP and router hardware is on a big UPS so it survives brownouts and even blackouts up to 6-7 hours long

AFAIK ISP's will offer an optional static IP option but typically only for business customers, and it costs extra. I'm not sure if any residential consumer ISP's even offer static IP's.
