Blocked IP

I managed to enter the wrong password in my log at my admin console and my IP has been banned. How can I fix this? Thanks.

Yes it's annoying to not have an answer posted to this question! I'm facing the same problem right now and trying to figure it out.

Okay, I fixed this in the database by finding the "UserBannedIPs" table and deleting the rows. I didn't actually see my IP address there, just some large integer, but perhaps it translates into my IP. After deleting that I could login.

An alternate option could be to try and login from another IP (maybe your smart phone using your cell data connection) - just don't get banned from it too!

I solved this in 2 minutes following John The Fish's answer here:

Just go to that table (backed up before doing anything) deleted the only row in the table and relogged in.
