The ip rule command will show the RPDB rules for LAN clients.
Check the TV settings for a region setting. I've seen that mess things up before.

Ooh not sure how that happened. So 0x8000 is to WAN 0x1000 is to vpn client 1
I have them pointing at the right thing now but the dnsmasq rules still didn't seem to be getting used at all. But I just spotted your reply to obenz about the vpn dns configuration, mine was set to exclusive which I expect is what was stopping the dnsmasq method from working all along. I set it to strict and restarted the vpn and things seem to be working again. I left off the amazon rules but added back the netflix asn, netflix web, bbc asn, and bbc web rules and they seem to be working again now, and binance is no longer getting through. It looks like it was the amazon rules letting too much through so I have left those off as I don't really use amazon video anyway now. I will remove the asn rules and see if everything is still ok just using the dns masq method as I would prefer to use specific ip's instead of opening up half the internet by using asn's.

Hi Xentrk,
Are you able to tell me what the item in the middle of my dnsmasq.log is referring to?

Can you post the other list also so I can compare? It works most of the time, occasionally however I have to use scmerlin and restart ovpn3 and the dhcp to restart the dnsmasq

So far all is working well, occasionally it still blocks, hence my question about the above message in the dnsmasq, showing that I had to restart the dns server and ovpn3. It seems that all works fine until a show ends, at that point it tries to autoload the next episode, which usually works. occasionally though I get the black screen with the prohibited icon on the play timeline. Exiting to the main iplayer screen and re-selecting the episode usually works, but on some occassions I have to fully restart. Next time I will try just restarting the ovpn to see if it is just related to the vpn, then try restarting the dns server and not the vpn.

I'll make another pass to see if there are more domains. I only selected a few shows to make sure they played before I stopped mining domains.
Can you also include the ASN for BBC to see if that helps. Looks like I also have it in my nat-start file.
Code:
sh /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/x3mRouting.sh ipset_name=BBC asnum=AS2818,AS31459The issue with fastly.net is it may also cast too wide of a net since it is a CDN (content delivery network). I want to experiment to see if I can get it to only capture the domain names that are used by bbc and not other sites.

Excellent! I did some more surfing of iPlayer on Fire TV and now have up to 125 IPv4 addresses collected so far. It is working without using the ASN for BBC.

So far I haven't seen what's disrupting mine, it seems no matter what I do, every 3rd show I have to restart my dnsmasq and ovpn. Usually, that works, but lately, I had to exit and re-enter iPlayer to get it to play
Xentrk

I recommend doing some analysis using the scripts available in option 4. I would start by routing all traffic to the VPN client you use for BBC and make sure iPlayer works okay that way. Then, use the autoscan.sh script and search for "uk" or "bbc" terms. The getdomainnames.sh script will give you a big picture view of what is being queried.
Sean Rhodes

I will do. Ideally I would like to shutdown everything except the one machine I’m using and on that have nothing except iplayer running and then log the files. It will have to be an early morning chore though otherwise I get too many wife and son complaints when I shut things down. Ideally I should grab another router and setup a different network and test on that I think.

How does one install an older version of x3m? Can I just use the curl command and replace the master with desired version?
So for version 2.3, replace this:

Dear Xentrk,
for a few days, I have problems with populating my amazon prime video rules. In my natstart the following entries are there:
sh /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/x3mRouting.sh 1 0 AMAZON-EU aws_region=EU
sh /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/x3mRouting.sh 1 0 AMAZON-US aws_region=US
sh /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/x3mRouting.sh 1 0 AMAZON-CA aws_region=CA
sh /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/x3mRouting.sh 1 0 AMAZON-AP aws_region=AP
sh /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/x3mRouting.sh 1 0 AMAZON-CN aws_region=CN
sh /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/x3mRouting.sh 1 0 AMAZON-GLOBAL aws_region=GLOBAL
sh /jffs/scripts/x3mRouting/x3mRouting.sh 1 0 AMAZON-SA aws_region=SA
My router reboots everyday as a cron job. As I recognized , that prime video has sometimes problems, I checked the liststats.
I found out, that sometimes the lists are populating very differently. Sometimes only the EU List is populated (532 entries), sometimes Global (108) and EU and sometimes other regions are populated as well. I rebootet the router a lot of times and I am getting different population. Do you have an idea, why that is occuring ? Could my DNS Server sometimes filter, so that not all lists are populated ?
Forward local domain queries to upstream DNS --> No , using quad9 as dns servers.
Netflix is working normally.
Is there a command for forcing a new population of the iprules (so that I don´t have to reboot everytime the router for testing)? Is it possible to add a cron job that the router is trying to repopulate after e.g. 5 Minutes of rebooting again and add the missing entries ?
Thanks a lot for your support.

PS: The best "population" I recieved after reboot was (and that was working perfectly):

AMAZON-CA - 61
AMAZON-CN - 93
AMAZON-EU - 532
