Blocked URL
I am trying unsuccessfully trying to unblock a URL that the security app automatically blocks on my computer. I click on unblock on the Orbi app and I get a message that the URL is successfully unblocked but when ever I try to access the site it blocks it.

The Orbi may not be the only thing blocking the website. What Virus protection are you using and what are your settings? Some browsers have built in protection. Chrome for instance safe browsing can give false positives.

I know its the Orbi because everytime I access the site I get a message on my Orbi app on my phone that my computer tried to accessa dangerous URL.
