I can’t open developer.roku.com and see this massage:

I had the same issue and turn off my VPN and then tried again and got in! I also went back on my VPN and changed the IP and got in!

I turned off the VPN, It is same.

Same issue for me. CloudFront error:

Try a private or incognito browser window. It seems to me that when I’ve had CloudFront problems clearing cookies may have helped (or that could have been a different problem altogether and my memory could be horrible).

6

Tried clearing cookies, incognito, multiple browsers, multiple computers. Anything attached to certain internet connections / ISP’s seem to be blocked. Its as if someone has blocked and overly large range of IP’s on the cloudfront ACL

I tried the incognito browser window. and no good! The only thing actually working for me is turning my VPN off! I use avast secureline vpn and never had an issue before! When vpn is off I connect sign in w no issues!

Day 4, Roku still hasn’t fixed their CloudFront configuration.

Why is Roku not responding?

@beitolabbas - No Idea…

Still broken as of 7/21…

Roku Partner success has been responding to my emails!

But I do loom videos to show my issues!

They been responding back!

I get access w no 403 errors when I turn off my vpn, Once I turn vpn on I get the cloud front 493 errors!

I am not using a VPN, and still get the 403 error. We have tried using a VPN out of curiosity and one of the VPN providers was blocked and another was not. We have 3 ISP providers, 2 of them are blocked/get the error. My home ISP is not blocked. Accessing via cellular seems to work.

As I mentioned previously, it would seem Roku has misconfigured the ACL governing certain AWS/S3/CloudFront assets which is causing users using specific ISPs to be denied access.
