That happened to me on a hifi forum not so long aga. Theyd blocked my ip address (Even though id never even been on before!) so short of going on the site from another persons computer theres probably not a lot you can do im afraid.

Yep this in most cases will re-allocate a new IP address (if you've got dynamic IP addressing which most people have).

Alternatively (if above doesn't work and there's no response to unblock your IP address or if it is a routing problem with ISP) you could try a proxy, such as proxify.com.

Make a note of your IP address (http://whatismyipaddress.com/) and see if it's actually changing when you reboot the router (you may need to leave it off half an hour or something).
