Hello everyone,

I'm trying to figure out how to block a website by its IP address in Tomato firmware version 1.28

I've read on other forums that you can add websites to Advanced > DHCP/DNS > Dnsmasq Custom Configuration "address=/facebook.com/127.0.0.1" but it doesn't work for me.

I have also tried adding the the rules or statements below in Administration > Scripts > Firewall but it doesn't work.

iptables -I INPUT -s 173.252.110.27 -j DROP

iptables -t nat -A WANPREROUTING -s 173.252.110.27 -j DROP # inbound
iptables -t filter -A wanout -d 173.252.110.27 -j DROP # outbound

My main objective is to block https://www.facebook.com. I know that I can do this by adding facebook to Access Restriction but it doesn't block HTTPS.

I thank you in advance for your comments.

Sorry I don't know about your router. You can, however, enter IP addresses in /etc/hosts.deny to effectively block by address (you can do the same in IPTABLES).

Facebook's address, 173.252.110.27, would be entered in /etc/hosts.deny:
The range of Facebook addresses is (from whois 173.152.110.27)
Hope this helps some.

Some thoughts here.
