One of my home IP addresses can't access sites hosted in Azure
Hi,
I have a slightly odd issue - traffic coming from my default home IP address (82.68.8.222) seems to be being dropped by some websites hosted on Azure (Microsoft learn, Nationwide Building Society). If I masquerade my laptops as coming from a diffierent IP address within my /28, it works fine. I get the following errors:
The request is blocked.

I can access the usual Azure admin stuff without a problem, it's just sites hosted in Azure that seem to block me.
Any ideas? Can I check if that IP address is on a blocklist of some sort and, if so, how do I remove it? I've had that netblock for a long time and, as far as I know, it's not been used for any malicious purposes!
And, given that it affects more than one website, I doubt whether it's a site-specific setting.
Cheers,
Phil
