Three mobile network appears to be blocking hummy.tv

Owen Smith said:
I have no login for this Three account, I bought it as a physical SIM to go with my iPad 3 (yes that long ago) when that was a new product. I've tried getting a login to go with it, but Three refuse to provide one unless I change to a current contract. Which I am not going to do because this SIM has free EU roaming. I can't find any current mobile provider with free EU roaming for a data SIM that will go in an iPad, they all limit the free roaming to phones these days.

Three doing this to you... it's been bugging me! They should still help a customer with an issue like that one you had... without requiring changing contracts.
Another thing to try is some basic IP tools, like DNS lookup of hummy.tv, PING, and Traceroute... it there a way you can access these tools on an iPad? Maybe an IP toolbox App, if there is no pre-installed option.
 
Something else to try is to change your DNS to Cloudflare's standard ones (1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1), or Google's (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or combination of both (one from each).
 
Why or how could this be a DNS problem, given that the error is obviously coming from hummy.tv ?
Messing about with DNS isn't going to fix this.
