Did you read the earlier messages in this conversation?
Keyword blocking was a useful tool in the days before Internet security moved on and browsers insisted on https. Sadly, the people who design hardware cannot make their stuff "forward compatible" with whatever the Internet throws at us.
Your C7800 dates back to 2017. Seven years is a long time in Internet years.
