Can't connect to EA Origin app if pfBlocker enable
-
Hi,
I don't know why pfBlocker do not let me log into Origin. Disable DNSBL and TLD seems not help. Disable pfblocker it is back to normal and games start to connect to the server as normal.
Could someone help me please! -
If you didn't figure this out, you need to look at the PfBlockerNG logs around the time of failing to connect, find out what advert or site is being blocked and either whitelist it or remove that filter from your list.
FYI you may have got a faster reply if you posted under PfBlockerNG category and not gaming.

Hey,
Had the same issue. It comes from using the DNLSBL_Malicious - AntiSocial_BD.
The list blocks several of EA's servers that are needed to get Origin working such as:
river.data.ea.com
gateway.ea.com
accounts.ea.com
signin.ea.comThe weird thing is I wasn't able to get this to work with DNLSBL whitelist, even though everything looks like its being allowed. Only TLD whitelist worked.

Thanks Rod-it and Plissje for your info. It will help me to unblock other website. I believe upgraded pfblocker and pfsense to the newest version solved the problem.
