Suddenly can’t access betting sites.

[Cooper-7]

I have accessed the same betting sites for years with Talk Talk broadband and suddenly about 5 days ago I began getting the error: “This site can’t provide a secure connection. ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR”

This is on Chrome across multiple devices and I get similar messages on Safari and Edge. I haven’t changed anything. 

I can access the sites using mobile data and have connected my PC to my personal hotspot and all the browsers on my laptop happily access the sites. However, as soon as I switch to wifi I get the error message which leads me to believe it is a network/talk talk problem. 

I’ve got Kidsafe, Scam protection, Homework time and Virus alerts all set to OFF. 

I spoke to a TALK TALK tech support guy and he told me that a lot of betting sites have blocked all Talk Talk customers due to fraud! I’m fairly sure this is nonsense. 

Please help!

Hi,
Please start your own thread as each case is considered unique and it is easier for support to be given to one person per thread and also less confusing.
To start your thread click the Browse button, then Help With Your Service and select the appropriate category. You will then see a Blue Button "Start A Topic"
Please also note that you should only post back on that thread and not start another on the same topic as multiple posts cause delay to you and others seeking help.
Thank you

I have the same issue with a home brew site, sound like anything remotely associated with adult is not accessible.

While you wait for support staff to respond, hopefully tomorrow, one customer reported fixing this by turning off the router for at least half an hour to start a new session.

It may be worth a try.
