    Hi guy, recently I'm having problem trying to access Fanfiction.net using my home wifi router.

    I have try resolving it by purging my browser history in Chrome, Edge and Firefox, flushing DNS via Command Prompt & editing Windows Hosts File in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc.

    I have no problem accessing any other website.

    I have ran tracert fanfiction.net with Command prompt. Below is the screenshot

    From what I can see in the Trace Route, the connection is lost after it goes through your home network to your ISP. You should try power cycling your modem (may or may not help), and if that doesn't fix it then contact your ISP because it's on their end. A proxy or VPN might help you in the meantime by providing an alternate route for you to get to Fanfiction's server.
