BEFW11S4-blocks certain websites

I have spent hours w my internet provider trying to identify why  certain websites, which were always accessible, all of a sudden can not be accessed wirelessly. After much ado, I connected the modem directly to my laptop and low and behold the websites in question pops up w no problem. Since I am lame when it comes to this stuff, can someone explain to me in plain talk how I can access these websites without having to be tethered to my modem? Is the modem too old, why is it only blocking certain websites? The websites in question are academic and I checked w the institution and all is well at their end. thanks

Well try upgrading the firmware of the router & keep on holding tightly
the reset button in such a way that power light is blinking on the
router & then do a complete network power cycle i.e., unplug the power
cables from the modem & from the router & then plug in the power cable
to the modem first once all the lights are solid green you could plug 
in the power cable to the router & check out it will definately work!!

  • I want to block certain websites

    While I am having problems with facebook and loads of unwanted ads, is there any way I can permanently block certain websites or ads from Firefox?

    Having a '''hosts''' file on Windows systems, and in Firefox use of the '''Adblock Plus''' extension with subscriptions are two major methods of blocking sites and/or files. With Adblock Plus you can block advertisements without blocking the site itself.

  • Is there a way to block certain websites from my computer?

    A website keeps saying "This website is a threat to your computer" or something like that when I go to certain websites. I scanned my computer with McAfee and it said that the website posting that was a hazard to my computer. I can't find any antivirus software (for free) to download to my computer that works (my computer says there's an error when downloading) and when I looked at the page again it had something that said "..I.. " in it and the I was lowercase so i figured that an official page would at least have all that kind of stuff capitalized.
    I just want to know how to block this website (or get a link to an antivirus download, for free, that actually works).

    Really no need to install anything to block websites, you can use the HOSTS file that is in every Operating System.

    Just a matter of locating the HOSTS file and learning a little bit about how to add a domain or IP address you want to block to that file.

  • Help blocking certain website and IP on a SG 300-20 Small Business Switch

    Hi,
    I like to block certain IP and website on the SG 300-20.
    Being new to Cisco Small Business switch I she tried with no positive result. Could someone give me some steps or maybe direct me where I can find a step by step resource.
    Thank you

    Hello, 
    Thank you for contacting us for support with your device.
    Unfortunately what you are trying to do is not possible with any Small Business switch.
    It is true that this switch can be used in layer 3 and it will be able to route your traffic on the inside of the network, but it will not be able to route your traffic to the Internet as it doesn't do any NATting.
    If you need to block any websites you will need to configure it on your router or firewall.
    Just to be completely clear, this switch won't be able to block any websites.
    I hope this was helpful

  • Cisco Pix 506 Blocks certain websites in Win 7/Vista but not XP

    We have been using a Pix 506E with Websense for many years and it has worked fine.  We recently got rid of Websense, deleted all references to it in our configuration, and now on Win 7/Vista machines, certain websites are not accessible, yet are accessible on XP machines.  When the Win 7 machine is taken off site, the websites are accessible.  How do we correct this?  If I have to post my configuration, what should not be shown?

    I use the free "privoxy" program as a proxy...it sits between my browser and the internet and can be configured to block various URLs. OTOH, it's easy to circumvent: a user could tell the browser to connect directly instead of via proxy or use a different browser. A stricter filter would be to use the built-in "ipfw" firewall (for which one can use the shareware BrickHouse as a GUI) to disallow contacting certain servers...this occurs at a more fundamental level of the network connection and can only be changed by an admin user, so the user or browser configs can't avoid it.

    Hello Kirk.
    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there.
    If it doesn't help, you may want to consider asking ESET about what they're doing with Firefox...

  • How do I block certain websites from my computer? on all users profiles,

    i want to block miro, limewire, etc from all users on my computer? my computer only tells me how to block it on internet explorer, not firefox. any help??

    Hello Laura.
    Are you talking about blocking access to the sites? If that's the cause, you can do it by using an extension that blocks unwanted sites ([https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3145/ BlockSite] for example) at your choice, or you can do it using third party software (like a Firewall, for example). There is both free and paid software of that kind. But Firefox doesn't include that feature by default, you'll need an extension for that.

  • Why does my Mac block certain websites?

    My Mac blocks Yahoo and Facebook most of the time.  I was told that this is not my router or modem and is a security issue.  Why does it only block specific sites?  I can't seem to find anything in my security settings.

    You're connected on a private and particularly an access-controlled and restricted network, and the administrators of that network have decided that connected users shall not expend available resources and bandwidth with access to various web sites and/or web services. 
    If the network administrators have established the blocks correctly, you'll need to use fairly advanced techniques to bypass the blocks, and attempts to bypass these blocks — whether the bypasses are successful or not — may well be considered grounds for network disconnection and/or disciplinary action by the organization.
    It's common to log these sorts of failures and attempts to bypass, and — given they have control of the switching gear — it can be feasible to uniquely identify the client computer that's making these requests.  If not the specific identity of the client computer system or the credentials used, then the location of the client computer that's attempting the connections.
    Check with your network administrators, and with the site's policies and procedures.

  • ACL Blocking Certain Websites

    I am having an issue where some websites within my office are completely inaccessble. I am noticing they are websites with use of jquery or javascript. For example, speedtest.net doesnt load at all. I confirmed my router and my internal dns server can resolve the address but the site just doesn't load.
    My ACL's on my router are the following:
    ip access-list extended LAN_OUT
    permit ip any any
    permit tcp any any established
    permit udp any any
    permit gre any any
    permit icmp any any
    access-list 100 permit ip any any
    LAN_OUT is used on my vlan interface specified as "out".
    I have tried using permit tcp any any but that doesn't work as well.
    any insight to this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Shaunt,
    Did you try remove ACL from interface? Did it help?
    I think that this could be MTU problem. Try to add this command on LAN interface #ip tcp adjust-mss 1300. Did it help?

  • How do I restrict certain websites on AEBS

    Hello,
    I am trying to figure out how to block certain websites from being accessable from all computers on my network using Airport Extreme Base Station. I have a couple of macs and a couple of pcs on the network. I really need to stop a couple of websites to not be allowed to come thru. It is not possible for me to do this on the computers themselves (long story), but I absolutely have to stop access to a couple of sites on the network. Any help would be very appreciated.

    The AEBS does not have the ability to do this.
