You will not be able to edit Test Wiki using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Test Wiki. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you have a Test Wiki account, please log in.
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: I was caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can email Test Wiki staff at staff@testwiki.wiki. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.
The template description below will not be displayed when the template is placed.
