Hello Everyone. Does anyone know how to unblock an [BLOCKED - INVALID] ip address? I have tried whitelisting the ip and the domain but it says that's its not blocked. I have the latest version of skynet if that matters.

I have used Skynet for 6 years and have never seen [BLOCKED - INVALID] in my Skynet logs.
Can you check in Skynet Settings [option 11] and the see whether item 6 "Log Invalid Packets" is set to [Enabled] or [Disabled] ??

Mine has been "[Disabled"] from the outset - it is also the default setting to be disabled.

Perhaps the problem is an invalid source packet - rather than a security block in any block lists?
 
My settings for Log Invalid Packets are set to Enabled. I think the problem is a (false positive) invalid source packet. When I use my phone internet connection, the packet is allowed to pass through but in Skynet, it is blocked. My main question is: Is there any way to UNBLOCK (potentially false positive) invalid source packet? I just think in my scenario, it is not a true invalid packet, but Skynet is treating it as if it was.
 
I figured out the issue. I had block port 8080 which the device in question in my LAN needed and that was causing the INVALID Packets. Thanks kernol
for looking into this.
