It means is not my ISP problem, but a generic problem. Has anyone any idea
of what's happening ?


According to some discussion on the linux-hams mailing list, QSL.NET
had a problem a short while ago - their system was being attacked by
"crackers" located somewhere in South America - Brazil, I believe. If
I understand the situation correctly, they were unable to get support
or assistance from ISP(s) from which the attacks were originating. As
a result, they have apparently started blocking inbound TCP/IP traffic
to their site from a significant portion of South America.
