Blocked Websites after firmware update
Firmware Version V1.0.9.26_10.2.3- Windows 10 creator update-I noticed since my last firmware update the router & wifi has blocked access to these websites Garnethill.com & ballarddesigns.com for my mom. I got through using 4G on my phone but not on wifi or using firefox & IE-newest versions even disabling addons, also turning over my firewall & virus protection. I even changed my ip address. Not sure what to do now.Solved1.7KViews0likes3CommentsR6900 Seems to block certain web sites for no reason
Nighthawk R6900 Firmware Version V1.0.1.22_1.0.18 (Latest Version) Windows 10 Home Version 1703 Samsung Galaxy S8 Recently I had problem accessing Craigslist.org and then later iomoio.com . At first I thought my ISP, which is Spectrum was blocking these domains. As part of my troubleshooting I tried using different browsers and different devices. All of these urls gave me timeout errors. I could access these urls if I used my cell phone without Wi-Fi access or if I used it as a hotspot for my laptop. away from home. So I used a proxy server through my desktop and I was able to access the urls. Next I connected my laptop directly to my cable modem and was able to access the urls. At this point it seems that my router is the problem. After accessing the administrative functions of the router I could not find any reason why my router would block these urls. I have no parental restrictions in place, no blocked ip addresses specified. I cannot find any apparent cause for these urls to be blocked. So I'm out of ideas at this point and am looking for help. Thanks.Solved3.9KViews0likes4Comments
