      Hello,

      So in some deeper trouble shooting, some smart TV's, xbox, ps4 have issues accessing my plex. Web browser and cellphone app seems to not have issues.

      I am having some issues with pfBlockerNG, I have some some trouble shooting and am at a loss now. If anyone could please give a few ideas as to what could be doing this.

      Sep 20 22:22:33 WAN Default deny rule IPv4 (1000000103) IPremoved:43162cpe-.san.res.rr.com IPremoved:32400 TCP:S

      I have the forwarding and custom options enabled.

      server:

      private-domain: "plex.direct"

      server:

      include:/var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.*conf

      I even put all the plex domains in my whitelist.

      I remove pfBlocker and I am good, when I pull the logs I dont see the plex port showing in any blocks. so I am lost here.

      I did this based of a suggestion" DNS Resolver page, add a domain override for "plex.direct" and use a server like 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1"

      Thanks all!!!!

        Update:
        Not a secure connection requirement issue, I know some TV's have issues with updated SSL/TLS.

          Soooooo...........

          Somehow I deleted the WAN rule the is auto added at the time you do the NAT rule. This I do not remember doing at all but I am so dumb.

          I really should have checked,. It came to mind when I was telling someone that "I can't figure out why the default rule is blocking it the only way that would happen is if I moved a rule to block or if I deleted it"

          It clicked how stupid I am as I was saying it to the person.
