Try copy and pasting
http://203.29.75.48/
into your browser’s address field and see if that works. It does for me.

Strangely, when I looked up the IP address of http://www.povray.org/
I got a couple of IP addresses that did not work. “Unable to connect”
The only other thing that I can think of. Is to try using a VPN to try 
and connect.

Let us know the outcome.
