Good afternoon, I'm a junior administrator, my manager went on vacation and yesterday they came to us to install new Wi-Fi routers from your company.
We have some division into zones, where the local network is available, and only the Internet should work in the reception for clients. The main administrator said that he set up a restriction for the local network in the reception area, but as a result, more and more people complain to me that they cannot access the sites. I did not see any restrictions in the settings, I collected a list of that sites:

https://rateyourmusic.com

https://www.zillow.com/

https://ijetbrains.com

https://1x-rate.com/

https://autodesk.com/

Where can I find a list of prohibited resources in router admin panel?
Perhaps you have an idea what it might be?

Hi,

Do you have Meraki Secruity Appliances in your network as well ?

If so have you tried to go to the Security & SD WAN Tab in your Dashboard and see if there are any Content Filters under the catagory "Content Filtering" ?

The websites you named fall under the following categories and may be blocked.

https://rateyourmusic.com - Entertainment & Arts

https://www.zillow.com/ - Real Estate

https://ijetbrains.com - Computer & Internet Info

https://1x-rate.com/ - Gambling

https://autodesk.com/ - Business & Economy, Computer & Internet Info

Apart from that it may be that Advertising is prohibited as part of an Layer 7 Firewall Rule.

When users search in Google they get advertised links which are then blocked.

Both are just some ideas.

I hope it helps 🙂

Kind Regards

Niklas

Do you have access to the dashboard?

Are these wireless routers MR devices?
