Re: [plug] cannot access AWS console on PLDT

[Robert Locke]

To add a few more details to my previous email: * <account>.signin.aws.amazon.com is a CNAME for signin.aws.amazon.com. * signin.aws.amazon.com in turn resolves to various IP addresses (some sort of round-robin), some of which I *can* access over SSL and some of which I *cannot*. * Adding one of the working IP addresses to my hosts file takes me a step further and my browser redirects me to https://console.aws.amazon.com/console/home. * However, console.aws.amazon.com is completely inaccessible for me on port 443, regardless of which IP address I use from various lookups.  Curiously, console.aws.amazon.com is a CNAME for an AWS US-east endpoint, so I'm starting to wonder if it's a connectivity issue between PLDT and US-east.

Is PLDT blocking it for any reason?  Any ideas who to talk to?
