    I see my default page when I connect to my site via domain name http://guildsocial.web703.discountasp.net however when I connect to it via IP Address http://209.67.188.9 I get a Webpage Unavailable error. I expect to see the same page. When I ping the domain name I get the same IP Address so I don't think it is pointer issue. Any idea what is going on?

    Thanks

    The IP is shared on the server, so no one site will come up when it is accessed directly. If you need the site to come up at the IP you will have to get an add-on that includes a unique IP, such as "Unlimited Subdomains."
