Cannot access to some websites through Asus router

[can]

i cannot access some website start from few days ago. But I can access them if i bypass the router and connect the laptop to the modern directly.
Downgrade or re-flash the firmware cannot help.
Anyone have idea on this issue? Thanks

What sites don’t work through the router that work when not using the router?

What is the error message that you get back?
Could be DNS settings, DHCP, firewall, AI Protection or one of about 1000 other issues.

Your laptop would have used your ISP's DNS server(s) unless you specifically configured another DNS server on your laptop. I always point my router's DNS to something other than ISP's; Google and others. From a portability perspective, it would be best to allow laptop to use DHCP for everything.

My thought is that the router firewall is blocking for one reason or the other. If you turn on logging firewall events you may see your unreachable website.

I'd have thought this is unlikely (although not impossible) because the router's firewall doesn't block outgoing traffic, only unsolicited incoming traffic. But then again, if he's installed some third-party firewall software....

But then again...

I concur but we just don’t have enough info to go any further in problem determination.

Indeed; he’s left us to wonder if he’s running Skynet or Diversion.

Funny how we always assume it’s a “he”.

Sounds identical to a problem I had. For several weeks I couldn't reach https://informeddelivery.usps.com
[ https://www.snbforums.com/threads/usps-informed-delivery-blocked.55897/ ]

It eventually started working but then I couldn't reach https://www.khq.com/
Now that has started working again.

Bypassing router works. Factory reset with no settings changed made no difference.
Weird problem... but I haven't found what site it has moved to now, so I'm ok.

Funny how you all always try to blame me or @Adamm

Thanks all of your replies. The problem website is pan.baidu.com and taojinbi.taobao.com. The Chrome browser said the web server is not responding or blocked.
I have been using 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 as the DNS server but they can't help.
I dun think it is the build-in firewall or anti-virus issue as all the devices in my home(including Mac, iPhone, Windows) can't access to the websites through the router.

What model router do you have? What firmware version are you currently running?

Try cloning your laptop's MAC address to the router's WAN interface. Your IP address might be blacklisted.

Yes, clone the MAC address and change of public IP address fixed it.
I believe the previous IP is blocked.

I have been using 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 as the DNS server but they can't help.

i've been having problems since sunday's google outage
so i disabled stubby, turned off router 192.168.1.1 dns
and now have my router using 9.9.9.9 (ibm dns).

i suspect a lot of stuff got disrupted by the google outage
so i'll give everyone here a few weeks to sort things out
then go back to stubby 1.1.1.1 when changes settle down.

hopefully by then 384.12 will be out of beta, so i'll do that too,
and since .12 includes some secure dns, maybe i'll drop stubby.

i don't know enough to "blame" any app or update or setting
but when you have a house full of people who can't access the
internet properly, you stick with whatever solution gets things
back up the fastest, then sort out the troubleshoot details later.
