      Hello So I am running pfblockerng, adding 1 ip blocklist at a time and found out my sons xbox could not connect, after disabling this list here I have access to xbox live.

      https://github.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker

      And here is the raw file

      https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker/master/data/hosts/spy.txt

      My question is which domains should I whitelist?

      Thanks for your help

        My question is which domains should I whitelist?

        Only xbox users
        and who use also pfSense
        and who use pfBlockerng
        and who use the list you use

        see what you see : blocked domains.

        So, its very possible your are the only one.

        Easy solution ; use another dnsbl ;) edit : Maybe WindowsSpyBlocker isn't good for you, as you want not to block what WindowsSpyBlocker proposes to block.

        Next best solution : connection only your xbox to pfSense.
        Do what you do with the xbox.
        And while doing so, keep an eye on the Firewall > pfBlockerNG > Alerts page.

        These is ( for me ) a section with :

        and half way down :

        2338604a-5917-4953-927e-787114e280eb-image.png

        now do what admin do : whitelist what is needed.
        Click on

        and do whitelist - and do this for dnsbl that xbox needs to contact.

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