Title: HBOMax on Roku Devices
Post by: Senorfluff on June 04, 2022, 08:42:57 PM
Hello all
HBOMax channel on Roku devices never worked, and would give me a notice about being unable to authenticate my device.  Drove me crazy, because all the other channels worked fine.  Took me a long time to think to check the blocked logs on Zenarmor!  When I found that it was blocking as "undecided safe access":

hbomax-52-20.youidomain2.com
52.23.129.248

Whitelisted it... works perfectly
So, maybe I'm just slow to realize this.  But seemed like I should at least put this out there!

Thanks for making this software available so effortlessly through OPNsense.  I'm a big fan.

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback. The site will be re-categorized and published to the cloud servers.

You rock sy!
since this post, I've found that the domain name changes slightly, requiring me to whitelist twice again.'
The domains that have since been used:

hbomax-52-25-1.youidomain2.com
hbomax-52-25.youidomain2.com

Is there a way to whitelist something like... hbomax-*.youidomain2.com?

Thanks again for the phenomenal product that the ease of use through opnsense!

Hello again

I'll say again how happy I've been with zenarmor and opnsense as a whole, and so grateful for the outstanding community here!

It's been a while, and I have still needed to periodically whitelist various hbomax related sites.  The following have all been added over time:

hbomax-52-20.youidomain2.com       
hbomax-52-25-1.youidomain2.com       
hbomax-52-25.youidomain2.com       
hbomax-52-35.youidomain2.com       
hbomax-52-40.youidomain2.com       
hbomax-52-45.youidomain2.com       
hbomax-a001.youidomain2.com       
hbomax-v52-55.youidomain2.com       
hbomax-v53-05.youidomain2.com       
hbomax-v53-10.youidomain2.com

would it work for me to whitelist "youidomain2.com"?

I wouldn't care too much except that my parents live with us and he feels bad always bothering me to "fix hbomax"  :o

Hi Senorfluff,

Yes, Defining a whitelist for "youidomain2.com" should solve your issue.
