Hi @ArminF,
Do you see Youtube Ads in block reports?

Dear Sy,
i did saw a block for Google Ads while triggering a meet.google.com link.
Actually my wife triggered her meeting and got blocked by sensei as meet was not in the whitelist anymore.
So i went back and re-added all the sub domains she is using to the auto whitelist and after a few minutes she was able to access meet.google.com again.
What i can imagine is that her company has some dedicated ip ranges or reservations from google which maybe get blocked or seen as ads.
Not quite sure how i could drill down these DNS addresses as i see the Ips on the reports.
thanks Sy and sorry for bothering about this.
On the other hand i could "just" allow the ads...

Here is my Auto Whitelist so far
1 connectivitycheck.gstatic.com -> youtube needs this otherwise it loads forever....
2 drive.google.com
3 fotos.google.com
4 google.com
5 googleapis.com
6 googlevideo.com
7 hangouts.googleapis.com -> not sure if i still need the subdomain as the main is above
8 mail.google.com
9 meet.google.com
10 youtu.be -> did not work without it. Youtube app is allowed but short links failed.
11 youtube.com
So as you see i had to add the subdomains as well as the master domains for google to get it to work.
the auto whitelist settings are not set as global allow as i do have just one policy in freeware mode.

Hi @ArminF,
It is strange because there is no Google Ads IP in the last DB. Can you restart the Packet Engine and try to block Google Ads again?

Hi Sy,
so today a normal day like all the other working days.
For me it looks like the reload of the service engine did help to bring back to normal.
Most probably i have to to this after each change or update to get a clean state.
Auto Whitelist is reduced to
1 google.com
2 lbryplayer.xyz
3 youtu.be
And my wife is still happy
I will monitor further.
thanks for your help and support Sy!

Ok, i had to give up.
Had to enable google ADS and youtube ADS to get all the google services running proper.
Drive does not load content. Google Meet is not loading the meeting. Mail does not load background... etc.
Without these two options enabled in the App List the google services do fail on my network.
Reports show all actions as Youtube ADS or Google ADS blocked.
