  I can’t find an explanation anywhere about your latest feature, the P2P block. Could you describe its function and its options? I see there are two options for it.

  Do I no longer need to block VPN/Proxy and Literal IP Addresses to block P2P, as previously discussed in this thread?

  The new P2P blocking option is less restrictive than the original VPN + literal IP address block. You can use VPN on your device with P2P blocked on the router. And you can have the option to do P2P over a VPN connection on the router.

  There are two options for P2P blocking:

  1. Block P2P on ISP Link: P2P is blocked only when the device’s traffic is send over the ISP connection on the router. If the device’s traffic is sent over a VPN connection on the router, it is not blocked.
  2. Block All P2P: block P2P even when the traffic is sent over a VPN connection on the router. But if your device has a VPN connection originating from itself, then P2P is not blocked. In that case, the router does not know it’s P2P because everything is wrapped inside a VPN.
