Hi,
This may be a dumb question but still. I am creating droplets from the same snapshot. Then I am installing wordpress on them. Then I configured the DNS (such as always) and everything works.
Except for 1 droplet (which I installed EXACTLY THE SAME WAY as the rest).
It’s my personal site : lexgabrees.com
When I connect through a VPN and come through a different country than my location (Netherlands) it DOES work. But without a VPN, it doesn’t. And all this while the rest of the sites have no problem !
What am I missing here ?
Thanks, Lex

That’s the thing . It works from anywhere other than where I am (which is the netherlands) …
And it works from my mobile as well … same IPS … same wireless network… But I cannot access the site from my laptop… (only through a VPN on my laptop) …
Can’t make sense of this …
Thanks for your reply … Once I switched my DNS to cloudflare, the problem was immediately gone … So i probably has something to do with digitalocan dns …
