Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.5.1 Build 20201022 Rel. 66804

My DNS server noted that deco main unit (I used them only in AP mode) was trying to get IP addresses of the below domains. What is the purpose and why is it doing?

 

facebook.com,

amazon.com,

live.com,

youtube.com

and some others.

Thank you. I blocked those sites, so it must be trying all of them then! I will unblock the first one it accesses and hope it stops there!
