I'm still trying to think how this 'error' has come to be. Did they purposely try and block something and nexon it up or did some ISPs gang together and say nexon is so much of a nexon that we wont let our customers go near?
One does wonder.
Spoiler
ISPs conspiring to block Nexon is a bit farfetched.
Wild guess:
Nexon changed something about their network, maybe finally replaced that faulty box that was periodically cutting their entire network off... or added another in parallel to it. This change hasn't fully propagated to whatever gateways/hubs need to know it, so some route exclusively to the old box (which is broken atm) and others go to the new one (which works well). The ISPs that can't connect are the ones using the first type.
One big flaw in this theory: Why would Nexon do this on a Friday night?
You might want to give your ISP support a call, tell them you can't connect to http://www.nexon.net while your friends on other ISPs can, and have them do what they can on their end (force reroute or w/e). It being a weekend though, most ISPs probably don't have anyone answering the phones who knows anything beyond "reset your modem and restart your computer".
