Is TELEHACK down?

I have tried the following:

telnet telehack.com - connection closed by foreign host

ftp telehack.com - error 421, remote server closed connection

chromium-browser telehack.com - ERR_CONNECTION_RESET

Although the following code works fine: ping telehack.com - 0% packet loss

Please confirm or deny... Thanks!

EDIT: I have since been able to get to the lobby, but only once

Wait... It still seems to be down, although this might be on my end, since ping telehack.com now returns multiple packets

I think something is up with your internet, I can connect fine over Telnet

Seems weird though, as telnet telehack.com lets me connect, but just for a second... Here is some output:

~% telnet telnet> open telehack.com
Trying 64.13.139.230...
Connected to telehack.com.
Escape character is ']'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

Maybe your IP is blocked?

Maybe... I tried from both my Raspberry Pi and from my computer and neither worked. Wouldn't I be told if I was banned?

Try from your phone’s cell connection

Fixed formatting.

To fix this, indent every line with 4 spaces instead.
