      Welcome!

      Does the site resolve from the pfSense GUi in Diag > DNS Lookup?

      Does it resolve from a client behind pfSense?

      Does it ping from pfSense itself in Diag > Ping?

        my first post so fa

        Hi,
        thanks for your response.
        I have tried but it says Host "https://www.youzu.com" did not respond or could not be resolved. For the other website the same.
        I didn't try behind pfsense because i need to disconnect the only cable coming from the router to the firewall and in working hours is a bit difficult.
        Any other suggestion :).
        thanks

        Emiliano

          are you using any other packages, ips, pfblocker?

          If your saying when you ping it times out - I take it resolved to an IP? since that error is different than host not found, etc.

          Please give a fqdn example of a site you can not get to, and what IP you are resolving it too.

          edit: ok does that site resolve?

              you do understand not all sites ping right. So that is not always a valid test

              Also for all we know your using that IP range internally, etc ;) have seen that way more than anyone would think. Pick your specific wan interface..

              Do a traceroute to that IP... Does get to past your isp gateway?

                  Time to contact the people that represent 'here'.
                  Just explain them that "https://www.youzu.com" is important for the company.

                  No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                  Edit : and where are the logs ??

                    Well, the only thing we did is contacting the ISP and looks like there is any issue from their side.

                      I can ping that IP too, was just pointing out that not all IPs will respond - so unless your are SURE it will and should, its not always a valid test..

                      So your traceroute is sending traffic for that IP out to your isp and internet.

                      Do a sniff on your wan and validate you send out the syn on 80 to get to their site, or ping etc.. If that is the case then its not pfsense issue at all and something on your isp, the internet between your isp and that site, or the site themselves blocking your IP..

                      How many other sites can you not get to- are they all in the same netblock?
