I keep getting this message from a site

"You appear to be connecting through a proxy server. Your organization or ISP may use a transparent caching HTTP proxy. Please try and access the site on port 81 (this should bypass the proxy server"

I called my internet provider and they said they dont use a proxy, also someone who use's the same Internet provider as me, can access the site and join the site on there pc . any idea why I cant ?

Im able to get onto the site its when i try to sign up that i get this message

try port forwarding on 81, it will be inside your modem or inside your router if you are using one.

type in the IP address of your modems or router to gain access to that device
