    Seems something to do with server network access issue from your location / networks in your area rather than a Cpanel / WHM issue

    Hello,

    Do you have your IP address whitelisted in cPHulkd ?

    Yes Right, You are getting this issues due to cPHulkd protraction, You need to add your IP in white list. You can add it through command line OR WHM,

    Code:
    /scripts/cphulkdwhitelist 192.168.0.20
