@propercactus what version are you on for pfsense and pfblocker?
I have been unable to duplicate this problem in multiple browsers - so have to assume something unique to your setup..
Its possible there is some sort of difference between the packages for CE and + ?? But that would be odd to be honest. But you never know I guess... I am just unable to duplicate the problem in my setup.
You say it works in firefox - so that really points to something with your other browsers. Or maybe something with mac? I do not have mac to test with..
If we can get some more data points by others chiming in - maybe we could figure out what is causing your problem.. But I have tried to duplicate it multiple times and multiple browsers - and just works as you would expect it should..
BBcan as already been tagged in this thread - so he might have some insight to what could be causing your problem.

@johnpoz I'm on 2.5.2 but it's a new setup as in the last 3 weeks new, I started with 2.5.2 RC then it turned into 2.5.2 stable.
Could it be the API that ronpfs mentions above?
-
The way I read that link, that has to do with reporting feature of the asn in use via some cache table?
I wouldn't think that should have anything to do with pulling the lists of actual asns, and really shouldn't have anything to do with pulling your geoip stuff..
The expert here would be @BBcan177 he is pretty good with chiming in pretty quickly, but it is the weekend.. So maybe he is busy with real life ;) Give him some time to chime in..
If was related to what was linked too - why would it work with firefox?? I would just use firefox if your trying to setup something, until such time that BBcan chimes in.

Maybe not, that file is installed when pfBlockerNG is installed, so it doesn't rely on the API for that.

Works for me in Firefox but not Safari, both on a Mac.
It's also the same with Firewall -> pfBlockerNG - Log Browser, if I select Logfiles and maxmind_ver the Log/File Details and Log is empty in Safari.

@johnpoz OK yup it's working in firefox for my mac, but not in Brave Browser (with the anti-tracker/blocking stuff turned off).
@jdeloach what browser were you trying with?
The browser I was using was Microsoft Edge for Windows 10.
I used to use Firefox but got tired of the ~10 second delay in Firefox opening a web page. Never could resolve how to fix that issue so I went to Edge.
-
I tested it with edge on windows 10, I saw no issues with the asn or geoip filling in the dropdown upon entry of some criteria to look for..
As to 10 second delay in opening pages with firefox? I have been running firefox for ages - I don't recall every having such an issue. Are you letting firefox use doh? That could cause a delay I guess, or maybe your using ipv6 and ipv4 and your having issues with switching to ipv4 when ipv6 doesn't work?
Never been a fan of MS browsers - be it IE or the new edge.. But it really should work in any browser.. As to what is going on with the other browsers on mac, I have no ideas really since I don't have any mac to play with..
Biggest complaint I have had with FF is their attempt to force doh on users.. But since it can be disabled, without all that much effort.. But still should be zero effort, if a user wants to use doh, then it should be on the user to switch to that.. It should never be a default anything in imho..
-
@johnpoz unfortunately DoH is being forced by apple too. I get a warning that my wifi is not private because I'm blocking DoH to known resolvers. At least Apple just throws a warning message and reverts to DNS as usual.
-
Not sure I would call it forced - while an app can try and use it.
From my understanding the default is not to use it. If you have links to info to the contrary I would be interested for sure.
I block all known doh ip and fqdn and block dot port. I would know if any of my devices were attempting to use doh, unless I have missed the IP of some unknown doh out there. But I update the lists regularly - and anything that major player like apple/ios/windows/browsers/etc were defaulting to should be listed on these lists.
The idea that apps or browsers or whatever can just send dns queries to some server they want to set without direct and explicit ok from the user is not a favorable direction that is for sure.

Yea same, I guess Apple is just complaining that the DoT port is closed irrespective of if it's using it or not. It just gives me a privacy alert sometimes in the Wifi area saying the network isn't allowing encrypted DNS.
-
Im blocking dot, and I have seen no such warning on my iphone. I see the privacy warning about not use random mac..
-
@johnpoz Yea this is it here https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/pihole/comments/hfpraa/ios_14_privacy_features_your_network_may_be/
I only see it intermittently occasionally. Only because I was switching between my wifi networks that I noticed it. Doesn’t happen all the time strangely.
Maybe it does random DoH/DoT queries to test if blocking and alerts I dunno, it seems to happen randomly in my case.
-
I will keep an eye out for it - maybe you have some app trying to use it?
Just took a look at my log for dot.. Only my shield TV is hitting it now and then.. Seems to try once an hour ;)
And good thing is - its trying it to the dns I have set it to use.
