Thanks for replying here. Can you show me a screenshot of what is said in the ban message?
tim
How do I do that, I’ve got a screen shot but I don’t know how to send it to you?
I use postimage.org and paste a link.

That’s not a wordfence error message. Are you using any other security plugins?
tim
a wordpress brute force plug in but it’s wordfence that apparently needs updating, could you log in to have a look?
Email [email protected] and reference this post url.

After looking deeper with the customer, it looks like there are problems running our plugin along side the WPSecureOps Easy Firewall and WPSecureOps BruteForce Protect plugins. WPSecureOps BruteForce Protect was the plugin causing a lockout, not wordfence. Access is now restored. Please follow up with your hosting provider on why you can’t connect to wordfence servers to download the malware signatures.

How do I prevent brute force attacks if I can’t use WPSecureOps BruteForce Protect
