It's not the problem with vpn. the site has spaciel way to ban non-japanese access

What are you trying to update though?

Is it WillPlus company games?

Seems to be giving a 504 Gateway time-out error.

It'll be interesting to know how they do it. Tried different JP locations on Windscribe but only got an error. (Is it possible the website's down?)

The site is fine if you open it in japan.

You can try residential IP address service but it's quite expensive. Best to ask internet for what you needed directly.

Can confirm that the site won't load, even with other VPNs than the one you've tried. It's somehow stuck in the loading limbo, before displaying that "The connection was reset" or something along those lines. Very curious indeed.

It is definitely related to a foreign IP block, there are certain JP sites like these aside from the one specified that is capable of this feat that can thrawt connections.

They probably must have a few IP addresses reserved that are blocked from most VPNs as well.

I am not sure how to bypass this myself since situations like these are very rare.

Now that I think about it. The Russian pornsite that I used to frequent in, got Geo-blocked in a similar manner, after the you-know-what fiasco. Don't tell me it's the local government's interference?

What am I doing there you ask? Russian pornstars are really hot, and not all of them distribute their content to the world. So, I have little choice but to navigate through the runes, with the help of DeepL.

Could be :p, but we are derailing this thread by talking about something else aside from the poster's initial problem with willplus games only.
