there may be a difference in methodology here, I am using a software called ping plotter and i am showing no ping response from the address ending in 254 however if i change to a different ip address it works. this is using the exact same equipment, computers, routers allstar nodes. Furthermore using the same equipment and changing the ip address on the router from 254 to a different ip address on the same internet circuit causes everything to work.
also pinging anything other than stats.allstarlink.org works as expected, such as 8.8.8.8, google.con, twitter.com all ping.
furthermore inbound connections to the HTTP server on port 80 of the 254 ip address (port forwarded in the router) work as expected
and inbound allstar connections for other nodes (not mine ) using the public internet connect as expected.
the only think that does not work is the http://stats.allstarlink.org/
thus as inbound connections to port 80 and to the allstarlink nodes work, outbound to everywhere else works (i am sending this email thru the same network using the .245 address, the same equipment on a different ip address solves the problem, the only thing left is that allstarlink has blacklisted and or blocked my ip address for reasons unknown, just like bryan has done in the past. and this has absolutely nothing to do with using .254 as this worked for years before bryan messed with blacklisting me.
this all started 8-12-2018 when bryan black listed 254 and has been intermittent ever since, before that it worked fine.
how do i get this resolved?

Hi

the service is a fiber delivered business class service in our server room 254 is a valid address on this service, no routers there.
it does not piing when i use it.
this has been the ip address for some time, never had issues before bryan messed with it.

chris43:
also a computer on the same public address via the router can not ping stats.allstarlink.org
I’ll ask our sysadmins to check if you are blocked. But a last octet of 254 is sometimes used for a router. Do you think that could be the problem? Can you ping 254 when you are not using it?

interesting, was that me or someone else?

I recall some discussion a long time back where there was a rate-limit or block rule being tripped related to the stats server, due to the large number of (legitimate) nodes being NAT’ed out through the single IP address.
