I am getting MANY emails EVERY day, in regards to the Netgear log blocking the below site. How do I add this site to the safe list to stop getting tons of email alerts?! I have an AX9 RAX70 Nighthawk wifi 6 router.
[site blocked: 1d.tlu.dl.delivery.mp.microsoft.com] from source 192.168.1.33, Wednesday, December 18, 2024 13:46:09
Ok, I figured this out! I had site blocking on in my router settings based on certain keywords. I totally disabled the site blocking function, I stopped getting the site blocked notifications. This site that was blocked completely has to do with the Microsoft store app in my Windows 11. In my router, I looked up the two assigned ip addresses with the issues. They were my desktop PC and my Microsoft Surface Pro. I opened the Microsoft store app on both, and saw that an update was stuck on each device (both different product updates, this can happen with any one of them). When I quit the download/update attempt and then restarted the update attempts, I got the error log notice via email from my router! So after temporarily turning off the site block, I could finish the Microsoft store downloads/updates. I then enabled my site blocking again and no more notices for now. I will know what to do next time this happens. I have a daughter, so I have certain keywords that may be on websites blocked and I will continue to use this feature. At least I can identify which device, and check the Microsoft store app for "stuck" downloads. Hope this helps some people.
I do not have smart parental controls, that is another pay for service. I am thinking it may be my microsoft outlook, but what am I going to do, not check my email (lol)? The modem is a spectrum modem (Hitron Technologies, Inc. "EN2251") with wireless gateway and router functions disabled. I have not done a from scratch setup since last FW update.
Some people have suggested this is the windows built in app, the microsoft store. I looked at it and "windows notepad" will not start downloading and it sees an update for it. I have stopped the update, then restarted and I believe I get the netgear log warning. I stopped the download, and uninstalled this app. I use notepad++ anyways. Let's see if this helps!
