I don't know if OVH have done anything (thanks if you have!) but my access to youtube.com is suddenly working again.

[twiglet]

I am having the same problem. From one my OVH IPs, when i go to youtube i get a 402 error in return.

I have posted on the google groups for youtube, but i doubt this is going to get picked up.

Since this is affecting multiple OVH customers, can someone from OVH please deal directly with youtube to ensure your customers dont get blocked in this fashion.

My IP is: 94.23.158.69

Thanks

as you can see in the status page for that issue back in 2011, we had to contact youtube for them to fix it. What's your IP, please?

anyone with a similar issue?

Hi Mark,

i created a ticket about this with a screenshot and this forum link.
In return Anis said i should be contacting youtube. I don't know where to begin on this

any ideas on how to proceed on this?

[Groodles]

@marks Have you managed to make any progress with this?

[Groodles]

It seems as though a new Google Groups thread has appeared regarding this issue, but as yet, no Google representative has offered an opinion/explanation.

There are 3 or 4 OVH IP address which are listed in the new thread.

I was having this issue for the last year with one of my VPN IP's. (thread: https://productforums.google.com/for...g/DtQmeXtMaHAJ) had to use a proxy on another IP to get past the 402. Has been fixed within the last 2 weeks now though thankfully.

This issue seems to have returned. At least it has on my IP. :-(

How was it resolved in 2011?

asking for captcha from 94.23 188.165 and 91.121
bummer the servers can watch cat videos anymore :'(

[Andy]

I've been getting a captcha requirement whenever I use my proxy for Youtube. Seems something is going on, but I don't get a 402 payment required error.

[darkfyre]

from a quick google search, seems to be a common issue caused by youtube rather then OVH.

[gregoryfenton]

Sorry, I am 91.121 too

I CAN access youtube.com

but I CANNOT access any video or user page

For example, I cannot get to:
http://www.youtube.com/user/lolo262626

I just get a blank white page in any browser.
I have made no big changes and everything worked before 3 days ago.

Any ideas?
