Looks like an ISP issue.

 

[Chief31]

Ok u unhooked router and hard wired straight to modem and its saying urlopen error erro 7 no connection with host what's tha mean

 

[wickedjoker]

So looks like your isp is blocking traffic or doing something some people have used a VPn and had service restored I would try that.

 

[Chief31]

I live in the USA I shouldn't need to use a Vpn the host is Nfps so there blocking me no my isp

 

[wickedjoker]

who's your isp? BTW I am only reading what other have done from that link I sent you. Also just because you live in the US doesn't mean anything when it comes to isp filtering.

You can also try and use the tool couch potatoe made maybe it will help shed light to see if your ip is banned from the server.

check that tool in my last link above i believe it checks your IP to see if it is banned.

Ok I don't have a computer so how can I set up a Vpn using my iPhone can it be done

 

[wickedjoker]

what box are you running?

 

[Chief31]

Nvidia shield

 

[Chief31]

And also fire tv stick

 

[wickedjoker]

I use

https://www.ipvanish.com/

you can use what ever you want but they should have an app on the google play store then simply run the app on your box and then start kodi service.

 

[wickedjoker]

And also fire tv stick

im not sure how it would work on a fire tv as I never used one before.

 

[Chief31]

Ok wickedjoker I want to thank you for helping me I used a Von and got it working but I really don't understand why I was blocked

 

[Chief31]

Is there any free Vpn out there the one u sent me it's not on the Google store so I just searched Vpn and got one with a 9 day free trail

 

[wickedjoker]

Yeah there are some free ones not really sure the names do a search on here in the forms here and there should be some listed.
