Not sure I follow... You don't remember this post? Blocking those url's doesn't help any longer, at least not my blurays. They use other url's...
Ehh yes that's why advise cutting ALL internet traffic but until I get results for my test I don't even know if you CAN block at all. Long story short some routers "PRETEND" they can block while do NOT

But as you say routers might block differently.
Just blocking "firmware" can also work.

You mean a local DNS server where I can resolve the host name to some dummy destination or similar? Can't find anything like that either.

Exactly so don't misinform people blocking is most important on J/K where ALSO checking update on device "fails due to timeout" and it was PROVEN that it doesn't mean a shit. Looks it blocks ONLY "normal" updates but from time to time tv will try "different methods" and to block those blocking by URL is useless. Does it also affect H, no idea...JeppeTh wrote: ↑Sun Feb 05, 2017 12:13 am Https I guess isn't possible to block. I only block port 80, 8080 and 443. So ping isn't blocked. On my router blocking a host completely doesn't seem to be possible. Only url-filter or ip-block exists. No block of hosts.
My device seems to use http, e.g. port 80, luckily. So at least at the moment block works. I.e. checking for update on device fails due to timeout. At least on H-series. F-series seems to simply report "no update" also at failure. The check at least takes longer time. But it doesn't really matter since F-series won't get any more updates. H-series might, so more important there.
And there's still no resolution to this?
