hellojohnbuck Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 I am enjoying the responsiveness of DumaOS with my Smart Modem 3 - but I still need a way to block URL's - think Youtube..for teens in myhouse - does Optimiser knock out the old Parental Controls Blacklist feature - its no longer working - or is there any option in Duma? thanks in advance, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 2 Administrators Share Posted March 2 Is that with both enabled at once? Copy all of these into one domain rule: Youtube.com www.youtube.com http://youtube.com https://youtube.com http://www.youtube.com https://www.youtube.com and see if that works please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 3 Administrators Share Posted March 3 Okay thanks for letting us know, I can get it working on the R2 so something specifically on the Internet Optimiser side. Just to be thorough before passing it on to the team, both Adblocker and QoS are enabled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Alex Posted March 18 Administrators Share Posted March 18 @MuRF FuRY@hellojohnbuck Hi, I'm from the QA Team. I have tested this myself on a Smart Modem 3 and it seems to be working. I added both youtube.com and www.youtube.com as a custom Domains list, and it was blocked successfully. Please answer some questions to help me figure out what's happening: Is Adblocker working using the default lists? Does anything come up on the bubble chart when you visit a news site? Does the site contain ads? Have you tried flushing the DNS cache after adding youtube.com and www.youtube.com to the domains list? If this doesn't work, have you tried leaving it 24 hours for the DNS cache to expire? Have you got a manual DNS address set on the device you're using to test this? For example, on your PC? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Tried everything apart from waiting 24 hours, it still does not function. Yes, when enabled I see stuff come up on the bubble chart, but sites still appear to have ads, I have tried blocking other sites apart from you tube and not one is blocked. I am missing something? I feel it is also linked to modems parental controls as that does not work either. Netduma Alex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it sounds like Adblocker is running, as stuff is coming up on the graph, but for some reason the DNS requests aren't being dropped. I'm going to do some additional testing to try and recreate this bug, thanks for the help. MuRF FuRY 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sankaran Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I have following domains added and even though the event stats showing www.youtube.com being blocked, but still i am able to stream videos via youtube and didn't really get blocked. So not sure what the system is blocking!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellojohnbuck Posted April 30 Author Share Posted April 30 if the team can achieve this, effective https url - or just youtube and social domains, blocking it would be a game changer for 1,000s of parents and who knows else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 30 Administrators Share Posted April 30 YT cannot be effectively blocked currently 4 hours ago, hellojohnbuck said: if the team can achieve this, effective https url - or just youtube and social domains, blocking it would be a game changer for 1,000s of parents and who knows else. You should be able to achieve this with the existing Internet Rules options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Select the device you want to apply to, the activities etc you want to block allow, select your schedule/block/allow and that's it, is there something you're having an issue with specifically?
