If the AT forums are blocked at your work/school/wherever, my friend set up an alternate dns which resolves to the same IP forums.anandtech.com does. This works and you can view, login, and post just as normal (i'm doing it now). This enables me to get around the site censor at my school. The IP is:

Thanks for the support, but ClueLis is right. We cannot support working around bans by your school or workplace, even to our forums. It will just cause further antagonism toward our forums and site. :(

I doubt it, probably not for a long period of time at least. This DNS has been working for the past 3 weeks or so since I set it up.

Thanks!

Strangely, ATOT at work is really slow for me now. I wonder if they are doing something to slow it down somehow. ATOT at home work fine though.

Why would anantech be blocked? If you're blocking a simple technology site like anantech, you might as well unplug the internet connection from the wall.
