Model: OC200  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 5.4.7

So i was trying to block internet access to some devices but its not working properly.

 

Example: on my smart tv, it's blocking majority of apps, like YouTube, Amazon and other VOD apps with the exception of Netflix, for some reason i am still able to access it.

 

Another example is Nvidia Shield Pro. Although it shows blocked on the Omada app it still has full access to the internet.

 

With Ipads and iphones it's restricting them with no problem. 
 

So any suggestions why its not fully blocking all devices properly. Thanks

How did you set these Block rules? ACLs?

Just striving to develop myself while helping others.

  @Virgo rules? Sorry, all i did was select the devices i wanted to block and just hit "block". If it makes any difference, i did it using the Omada app on my iphone. I could always go through the website if it's recommended.

  @adinis Are these devices that you are failing to block wired or wireless?

  @btx i am able to block ipads and iphones no problem, the problem i am having is that when blocking 2 smart tvs, i can still access netflix but all other VOD services are blocked as they should.

  @Alex789 the devices i am trying to block are wired. It partly blocks them, meaning i loose access to all VOD apps (YouTube, ect.) as it should BUT i can still access netflix, for some reason the block is not affecting netflix. A bit confused.
