Armor Blocking Helium RAK Hotspot

Hi everyone,

I installed a Helium RAK hotspot on my Orbi Network and Armor is blocking all traffic to it.

I tried to set it IP on the DMZ but still no go.

It there a way to make an Exclusion on Armor so it does not block a specific device / IP on my network ?

Appreciate your thoughts and creative ideas.

Thanks !!!

      Thanks plemans ... I did unblock the sites several times but they do change randomly.

       

      What I'm looking for is a complete EXCLUSION for the Helium RAK Hotspot which is already assigned an address of 192.168.33.200 behind the Orbi.

       

      How to make this local IP [192.168.33.200] free and clear from any ARMOR blocking ?

       

      I am sure that similar people had issues with IPTV devices so I'm hoping that there is a solution for that.

       

      Thanks everyone for offering to help !!!

        with the helium being on the 192.168.33.*** address. Did you change it or does it have its own dhcp built into it? 

        Not sure how armor responds to it being changed from the default LAN range.

    Hi, 

     

    How did you know your miner was being blocked? I currently have Armor running as well as a RAK miner, but my miner seems to be doing OK. However, seeing your post makes me nervous I'm actually limiting my earnings without knowing. 

     

    Great if you could share some intel on this!
