Phone IP Address Banned Overnight

Forum URL: curseoftheclans.boards.net

This morning I received a notification of "Error 1006" for my phone's IP address. I can no longer log into any proboards that I am a part of (the one above is the one that it first popped up on) and I have contacted the owners. That IP is not on the banlist for the site. 

However, after doing some digging on here, I'm confused. Because I've used this IP for a couple of months now, and it's never been tagged as malicious, so I don't think that's the issue. Nor was I spam refreshing. I checked my phone before I went to bed, didn't touch it for nine hours, and woke up banned. 

I'm just curious as to what my next steps are to try and remove the ban. Thank you!

rosa1, are you using the phone's cell data or a wifi connection?

Cell data. I rarely use wifi with it.

rosa1, have you tried turning off your phone, gave it a few minutes, turning it on and tried again?

I just did and I can't believe that worked! Feel a bit dumb (and a bit like a meme) for not trying that in the first place. Still not sure why it banned me in the first place but thanks guys! Much appreciated!
