Solve : Website works at work, not home?

Answer»

I hope this is the right section to ask this question in. I'm a big newbie.
I'm having an issue that I have no clue how to solve. There is a specific WEBPAGE that I try to view at HOME with my laptop, and it never loads on Chrome and Firefox, but does on Explorer. But when I take the same laptop to work or school, it does load that website on all browsers. I also have a DESKTOP that stays home, and has the same problem. Its so strange. I don't know if it's a network thing, or an facebook app thing.

I've tried re-installing Chrome, deleting all cookies and caches, disabling all extensions or plugins, and updating Flash and Java. Any ideas?

The page is an app on facebook. It is www.facebook.com/indieskytribe. Go there, then click on the app that says, "Play Music". The apps is made by Bandpage. It's just weird that it works at school and work, just not home.Who is your ISP and what type of ISP Service Plan do you have?We just got Google Fiber the day or two before this started happening. I don't know what an ISP Service Plan is, but I'll research it and get back to you ASAP. Quote

Sounds like the ISP may be blocking it or they have some sort of issue between them and their backbone to the internet. Some ISPs have been playing games with data types behind the scenes to throttle stuff down and block some stuff.Thank you. I've contacted them twice, but they don't seem to know what they're doing. What should I say to them? Should I say, "Can we see if the ISP is blocking one of my webpages?"Please let the forum know more about your ISP. Especially your region. Are yhou  in Europe? ASIA?  Canada?

In some regions, like the UK, a few  music sites are banned by some of the the local Internet Service Providers.  Would that apply to you?

It says my ISP is Google Fiber Inc. And it is based out of Mountain View, California, United States. I live in Utah, United States.Thanks for your guy's help. It could have been my ISP mixed with this app. I just changed to a new app and it's good. Good to hear you found the solution  =)
