Please Review Player Ban

Hello.
I'm posting this ban review request for a friend of mine.
He lives in Argentina and does not speak any English.
He has told me that he is being kicked from the server immediately when he tries to join.
The reason in the kick dialog "You were kicked for using a VPN/proxy"
His player name is:
RYAN- with sometimes Ryan
He is unsure of the date he was banned.
He plays on this server normally:
    *NEW* SiMPLE | BF1942    37.187.92.162:14567
I have checked and verified that the IP he is using is not using a VPN or Proxy via my account with ipqualityscore.com
I have used this to manually check IP address on servers that I'm affiliated with and have found the results to be reliable.

Can an Admin please review Ryan's ban?
If I need to PM the IP he is using and his key hash please let me know.

Ryan really enjoys playing on Simple and wants to be able to play again

Thank You
InquiringMind

EDIT: Additional Information.
I ran a deeper IP test and see that it does indeed show that he is on a proxy connection. This is something that is being apparently done at the ISP level without his knowledge. I have known this player for a few years now and I don't believe he is doing anything intentional like a proxy.
Ryan has recently moved to a new home - this new location is the one showing a proxy on deep inspection,
His original home ISP IP address was totally clean with no proxy showing up on deep inspection.
I truly believe some of the proxy positive test results are the result of things being done at the ISP level and the end user has no control over this.

Thanks again.
I will gladly provide all of Ryan's IP address (Only 2) and his key hash if needed.

Hopefully this will be resolved- Ryan is a good guy- and really enjoys playing on Simple, and as you know, finding a good server to play on is getting more difficult by the day. It seems that players are disappearing into the ether- not to play on another server- but to likely play other games.
