Unable to download from the website
Hello, is there anyone who can help me? It seems that our public IP is blocked, so we are unable to download from the Dropbox website. We cannot access 162.125.81.15 from our location. Our IP reputation is clean when we checked it on MXToolbox.

Hi there schifer - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Could you please let us know if you're getting the same results after clearing your browser's cache or using another browser?
How about when on another network or device?
If you're getting a specific error, I'd appreciate a screenshot too.
Thanks!

Hi Walter, this issue only occurs with my public IP. I have tested with other connections on the same device and browser, and the download works. I have also tried several things:
- During the file download process, the destination server is 162.125.81.15 on tcp/443, and the connection status shows "syn sent."
- From the router, pinging to IP 162.125.81.15 results in an RTO, and during the traceroute, it breaks at HOP 162.125.86.141.
So, it seems that my public IP is indeed blocked by Dropbox, even though my IP's reputation is clean.
