The 162.210.102.XXX cannot be visited in China right?
Anything I can do so that I can still host something in Freehostia but can be visited by servers in China?

Searched a little bit more about the problem.
I tried to ping the IP from a China ip. It seems that it works.
But if I ping the url. It cannot resolve the ip address (only cannot in China)
But it seems that I cannot directly access my webpage with ip address. Possibly because of virtual hosting?
Actually I simply chose a subdomain at freedns.afraid.org registry. Any quicker method rather than pinging the domains one by one in the registry to find which one can use?

Thank you very much!

Hello,

This is a shared hosting service where a domain points to an IP address, however not vice versa as for such purposes you will need to purchase a Dedicated IP and set up a PTR Record pointing to the domain name.

In general the 'ping' and 'traceroute' tools will need to be used with a domain name and not a URL format, so in order for us to assist you further please open a Support Ticket from your hosting account.
