AWS ap-southeast-2 is blocking my Fiji based IP

Since January, I have been provisioning instances for various reasons such as personal projects or coursework. About a month ago, I noticed I wasnt able to connect via SSH from my home here in Fiji. At the time I thought there was an issue with my keypair and went about my business via SSM. Today, I needed to use SCP to move some files, but I could not get SSH to work. ICMP worked fine so I knew I was reaching the instance. Eventually, my wife suggested trying the VPN, so lo and behold, it started working!

I have never seen AWS block SSH in this manner unless there was evidence of abuse, but I've not done anything out of the ordinary.

Tomorrow, I will try an instance in a US region to see if its only the Australia network blocking me. If US doesn't block me, I will try forcing my IP to change and try ap-southeast-2 again.

Is an 1hr 45min enough time to clear the international terminal and make my flight in the domestic terminal?

Title. I will be traversing Auckland Airport with my wife next Friday. We're scheduled to land at 17:20 at AKL and take-off from the domestic terminal at 19:05.

We have done the walk between the terminals before but under different circumstances, so I know it's a bit of a hike. I'm mainly worried about the time it takes to taxi, deplane, clear customs, gather luggage, and clear biosecurity, and clear security on the other terminal.

Just spelling all that out makes it seem like a lot and probably worth it just to eat the change fees instead of trying to deal with it day of.
