eBlockerOS 4.3 ist already in the works and currently being tested. This will be the next official release to my knowledge. 

THX!

For Raspberry and for example promoxx.

While trying to solve the problem, i ran into a kernel-panic with the result that i couldn't reboot; not from HD, not from a bootable USB, nor from the original Apple installation-DVD.

In the end i brought the old MacBook to the local Apple-dealer and bought myself a new MacBook Neo 🙃

I use the following naming convention:

  • MyPC, LAN
  • MyPC, WLAN
  • USBC-2 LAN
  • MyRadio, LAN
  • MyRadio, WLAN
  • Switch, LAN
  • ...

In general, I've just noticed that finding and locating all the network devices (“family business”) and assigning them correctly can be a challenge. With some unusual devices, even a MAC lookup didn't help me much. Now I've named them the same way in the router and in eblocker. That makes things easier to manage.

If I want to use a device with eblocker (or choose not to), I need to make sure that all network connections on that device are set to the same state (on/off). Mixed settings will cause errors.

It is very likely that iOS 27 is also affected, although I haven't tested it yet.

  • Firefox (156.0.1)
  • Chrome (154.0.8037.58)
  • the previous Safari version (26.6.2)

At least in the devices list they are next to each other.

I think a general device grouping feature would complicate the user interface quite a lot. Maybe there are other use cases for grouping devices?

Is the purpose of grouping to let two devices always have identical settings? In that case, maybe it would be feasible to let a device have "aliases".

I just spent some time figuring out that my computer was connected to two networks—one LAN and one Wi-Fi. And I had trouble with eblocker not working correctly. Now I’ve correctly named both connections and configured both using eblocker.
While doing so, I came up with an idea for a feature: What if the GUI allowed you to logically group two devices together? For example, “My PC” with two entries—one for LAN and one for Wi-Fi. Since there are also other computers with two LAN ports, etc., this could be a helpful way to organize them (logically/GUI)
