AIProtection P2P blocking non-P2P sites too

[online1415]

Have enabled P2P and File Transfer for a set of MAC addresses to block torrents. This works well. But as a side-effect it also blocking unrelated sites (ex: http://ramdajs.com/0.19.0/index.html)

Can we whitelist certain URLs such that they are never blocked?

On my RT-AC68U, I have all elements of AIProtection active, and I have no problem accessing ramdajs.com. Which router, which firmware (ans how did you set up the blocking noted in your first sentence)?

Have you tried temporarily disabling AIProtection and confirming that is the cause of the problem?

Router: RT-AC68U
Firmware: 380.57
Verfied by disabling AIProtection for my Air, that this is unblocked.

Below is the message when I visit ramdajs.com.

• Description:

Very strange: it appears as a perfectly legitimate, respectable site to me. Is there any chance you can flush your browser cache and perhaps put ramdajs into Google and then click on Google's offering? Or better, can you try ramdajs.com from a different device or a different browser not previously used to access that site, still going through the router, of course?

(Does AIProtection ever block other sites? Have you also set up email alerts with AIProtection? I've only ever had email alerts from AIProtection, and none for many months, but then I have another form of malicious-domain blocking. And if that really was a dodgy site, I would have expected my other blocking system to block it even if AIProtection hadn't. Very odd.)


And another thought: if you are using a Windows machine, try flushing the DNS before trying again, by opening the Command prompt and typing ipconfig /flushdns (noting the spaece bfore the "/")
