Just to follow up on this.
I've heard back from Adam with this message.
"Hi Bob, your IP address has been blocked by our security and firewall
system because of suspicious behaviour coming from a device using that
connection. I have removed the entry we should now allow you back on the
site but as they have said if something else is using your connection to
carry out this behaviour it will be blocked again. Below is the
following entry from the log file;
csf.deny: 80.7.35.195 # lfd: (mod_security) mod_security (id:949110)
triggered by 80.7.35.195 (GB/United
Kingdom/cpc76102-ando7-2-0-cust962.15-1.cable.virginm.net): 5 in the
last 3600 secs - Mon AprĀ* 5 10:58:17 2021"

I've no idea what I might have done
to cause this and I don't really understand the log entry.
Maybe my son is up to some mischief??

Bob,

Most Mobile suppliers use Network Address Translation so many of there
phones share the same IP address. I think folks who block by IP address
are ****ing into the wind. If you install IP Tools they will show you
your internal and external addresses. If they are different you are
"NATed" and many people will be sharing the address 80.7.35.195.

I am on virgin and my external IP is 82.132.247.28 which is a real
internal address but my internal address is 10.66.37.232 which is a none
routeable address. So many phones will sahre 80.7.35.195 and blocking it
will kill many connections...
