| Apple captive Portal and Wlan Problem | Relevance | 3 Wochen ago | Rene | Bugs & Issues |
| | Hello and good evening, unfortunately the workaround does not work here. The login page still comes up, along with a warning. Now I can't open any websites at all. I always get a malware message. I have tested all suggestions. The behavior can be observed on an Iphone 12, an Iphone 13, an Ipad Pro and a Macbook Pro. Is there any other idea?best regards Attachment : Bildschirmfoto 2025-04-30 um 23.35.25.png Attachment : Bildschirmfoto 2025-04-30 um 23.39.29.png |
| iOS update 18.4 // Issues with home WLAN connection | Relevance | 1 Monat ago | BonyCB | Bugs & Issues |
| | Hello eBlocker Team, right after the iOS update to 18.4, WLAN connectivity is not possible, since Apple captive is popping up and does not allow me for further actions. Apple captive never showed up so far. Only disabling eBlocker, reseting the of the network settings on the iOS device and reconnecting to the WLAN without eBlocker lead back to WLAN functionality. I have now disconnected all my iOS devices from the eBlocker to be able to use WLAN. Attached a screenshot of the apple captive while trying to connect to my home WLAN. Attachment : IMG_132 ... |

| Dynamic DNS Updater | Relevance | 2 Monaten ago | homeblock | Features & Priorities |
| | It would really help to have an option to update the dynamic DNS directly from the eblocker. Maybe it could be done through crontab periodically.It should be done because there are routers with a very buggy implementation of DDNS - and an realization on the eblocker would be really easy to do.Thank you. |
| Wireguard Support | Relevance | 3 Monaten ago | henryFatzke | eBlocker Open Source Forum |
| | I hope I won't be too annoying if I bring up the topic of Wireguard support again, but it has now become a virtual standard due to its "simplicity and speed"! I don't know what is/would be more difficult to implement, tapping the connections from the router so that eBocker can work with it, or integrating a Wireguard server function into eBlocker, or are there perhaps other approaches that I have no idea about? Proxy? Or ??? In any case, it would be great if eBlocker could get this feature in the foreseeable future. Unfortunately, my Fritzbox is responsible ... |
| HTTPS-problems (exclamation mark) | Relevance | 3 Monaten ago | Winfried | eBlocker Open Source Forum |
| | Hello Hope my issue doesn't get boring for you after so many years. I had the problem some years ago and got it solved with your help, but I have no idea today how I did it. I have been running eBlocker on a Rhasberry 4 for years now. Today I first tried to activate the "Consent- and Cookie-Tracking blocker" you described in your last newsletter, but could not find the item. Then I got the impression that the device seemed not to update anymore; then I found out, as years ago, that again there was an exclamation mark after HTTPS-filtering. I checked the ce ... |

Updates weren't done, and I observed then that it contained the very old "Family License" and did not apply my current DONOR-license. Trying to activate the DONOR-license again did not solve the issue. Still says "Family License", activated November 2021. Obviously, things like automatic list update also are not working anymore. Rebooting did also not change anything (anyway, I did not unplug the power supply yet). I do not know what c ... |

It would be nice if my eBlocker could also check for this alternative. I don't see a way to set the captive portal, or to add another in addition to the google address. (Of course, it would be best to be able to add an alternative, so that the google one is still checked.) |

But now I don't want to simply throw the 5-year-old white cube with banana pi to the bin. I see it as a possible further use as an experimental computer for ... |
