Changed my server's IP and now I can't access my website over VPN

Maybe one of you hogs knows what's up.

I got a new IP address for my VPS and updated the DNS A record accordingly. That was two days ago and I still get an "unable to connect" error when trying to access TankieTube through protonVPN.

However, if I drop the VPN everything works. This is the case with both Firefox and Chrome.

Does this have to do with DNS propagation?

  • It's probably some automated block on the VPN provider's part, but there is the ever so small chance that they have a misconfigured DNS server that ignored the TTL on the A record and is still trying to ping the old IP.
