RBR50 - Block Services not working?

Afternoon,

Trying to block a few devices from the internet all together but still work locally on the LAN. Its basically a few RTSP cameras but they reach out to one of those cloud services (like Arlo/Ring/Wyze etc) 

I built a block services rule for each of the cameras and was still able to access the cameras via the OEM mobile app. 

I then decided to block ALL services (even RTSP) just to see if they dropped off my NVR as well and nothing. 

As shown attached, i have each devices IP set to block ports 1-65535 and they still hit the web and my NVR. So something isnt working, or im using these services incorrectly. 

Essentially i want this things ONLY on my LAN with NO access to the outside. 

  • Fixed it.  Noticed i wasnt getting anything in the logs...

    Removed, re-added each, applied and re-tested. Now they are being blocked
