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...
Hi,
By the very nature of my other Adblocks I've had, these do stop the YouTube video ads as stated.
I would expect any adblocker provided it blocks the correct AD Domain to block these as well.
Seems as though there must be something in a list that I could add. Any Suggestions? Would really like to use this network wide for the family rather than have to install apps on phones and blockers on the PCs instead.
I have done a factory reset afterwards as well.
Thanks.
Those will have been browser based Adblockers which would have been able to block more easily, when it's based on the network it is harder - it's very much something we're still working on and really want to find a workaround for. That's what I mean, the ad is served from the same domain as the video.
When you used other lists like easylist did you add it in the same way, as an online list? Also try downloading our file and then uploading it to the router and adding it that way
