Introduction
We understand how frustrating it can be when you're trying to access a website and you encounter an error message stating, "Server IP address could not be found." This article aims to provide you with some insight into what this error means and how you can potentially resolve it.
Understanding the Error: This issue often stems from internal network settings, which are typically controlled by your network administrators. As a user, you may not have direct control over these settings.
Steps to Resolve the Error
Try a Different Browser or Device: Sometimes, the issue could be specific to the browser you're using or the device you're on. Try accessing the website from a different browser or device to see if the problem persists.
Contact your network administrator: If the error persists across different browsers and devices, it's likely an issue with your network settings. In this case, we recommend reaching out to your network administrator. They should be able to determine whether the firewall on your network is blocking the website or if there are any DNS configuration issues.
Request to Unblock the Website: If your network administrator confirms that the website is being blocked, you can request them to unblock it. Please note that the decision to unblock a website is at the discretion of your network administrator.
