To add service blocking rule for a custom service or application:
1. Find out which protocol and port number or range of numbers the service or
application uses.
You can usually find this information by contacting the publisher of the service or
application or through online user or news groups.
2. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
3. Enter https://www.routerlogin.net.
Your browser might display a security message, which you can ignore. For more
information, see Log in to the local browser interface on page 16.
A login window opens.
4. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified when you set
up your router. If you didn't change the password, enter password. The user name
and password are case-sensitive.
The Dashboard displays.
5. Select ADVANCED > Security > Block Services.
The Block Services page displays.
6. The first time that you add an outbound firewall rule, in the Services Blocking section,
specify how the router applies outbound rules:
• Per Schedule. Use keyword blocking according to a schedule that you set.
For more information, see Set up a schedule for blocking on page 64.
• Always. Use keyword blocking continuously.
7. Click the Add button.
The Add Services Blocking slide-out panel opens.
8. From the Service Type menu, select User Defined.

defining a name:

with the service or application. If you are unsure, select TCP/UDP.
