      Hello,

      I have pfblocker setup and it works fine on LAN and wireless devices like my laptop, but it is not blocked on iphone.

      I cannot find anything related to this.

      Can you point me in the right direction?

      I am not sure what I am looking for since I cannot find it.

        @llabtaem maybe your device is using DoH > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS_over_HTTPS or DoT > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS_over_TLS

        AFAIK apple uses that, so DNS is encrypted and goes to some other DNS Server (not yours).
        Could also be another dns server IP set on your phone...

        My guess anyways not using any apple devices here. :)

          An iPhone is like any other wireless device, as your laptop.

          You could close the DoH/DoT door :
          Start by :

          From now on, your Apple Phone will fall back to the DHCP Lease assigned DNS IP == pfSense, and obey all your pfBlocker rules. I know, as mine does.
          Didn't now I could get p#rn on my iPhone, though. Not getting p#rn, isn't that as simple as not asking for it ? 😊

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

            set your DNS to use the firewall also on your phone
