XR1000 Adblock Issues

Hi Everyone,    I have been trying to get the Adblocker working on my XR1000 today and to no avail.    I've read Netgear KB on using the link to the default list but this doesn't block any ads on...

Could you provide a screenshot of your Adblocker page please so we can take a look? Are you using Armor?

    Hi, 

     

    Please see screenshot below, 

     

    I've been testing and it looks like it does block traffic, but for some reason I'm still seeing all the ads. 

     

    Thanks!

      Could you provide some examples of places where you're noticing the ads? Are you using Armor?

        Hi,

        I am noticing these ads on pages such as Facebook, YouTube ads before and during videos.

        Also alot of webpage popups etc that were blocked before by my browser extension now pop-up when using the DumaOS defaults.

        I'm not using Armor.
