I used to go to a website: www.passiontimes.hk
I think it's blocked by Verizon during the protesting period last week in Hong Kong and hasn't been activated again. please reactivate it for me. Thanks.
We have tried pinging Passiontimes website using our server and the website returned the above results. If passiontimes.hk is down for us too there is nothing you can do except waiting. Probably the server is overloaded, down or unreachable because of a network problem, outage or a website maintenance is in progress...
Website Name:passiontimes.hk
I have Verizon Wireless service also. I am able to go to the website www.passiontimes.hk with LTE service. once i switch back to WI-FI which go through the verizon router in my house or my restaurant, I can't reach the website again. it's not the website is down, it IS Verizon's problem. please investigate and let me know what happen. Thanks.
I can get there from an at&t phone too but not via my fios connection which is odd as I am not using the Verizon DNS servers.
When I posted that, it was from a website called www.isitdownrightnow.com/ where they monitor website outages.
That website today also reports that it's still down. are you sure you're able to get there from alternate internet services. that website is not affliated with Verizon, so I am surprised if you're able to get there anymore.

That website also goes on to say

Looks like the problem I'm seeing from my end is due to a DNS resolution issue. My DNS provider doesn't seem to be able to resolve the records for the site.

I am assuming they are just having a temporary problem for now. You may want to at a minimum, try changing your DNS Servers if you're getting a "NXDOMAIN" or "Domain not found" error message from your browser. Or, if you receive the same thing I do at the second nslookup.
same thing is happening to me, I called them this morning and can't find the solution yet
Change your PC to use another DNS server. Google for details on how to do it.
