Cloudflare Error 1005: Access denied — The owner of this website has banned the autonomous system number (ASN) your IP address is in
The site owner blocked your network provider (ASN) — common for VPNs, cloud/data-center IPs and some mobile carriers.
Seen on:
Cloudflare
Meaning
Owners block whole ASNs to stop bots from hosting providers. Visitors on VPNs or cloud servers see 1005.
Common causes
- Using a VPN/proxy or cloud server IP
- ASN blocked by a firewall rule
⚡ Quick fix
- Disconnect VPN or use another network
- Site owner: allow the ASN or narrow the rule
