Best way to block Facebook traffic on MikroTik RouterOS 

I'm doing DNS filtering, first you only allow dns requests to your local dns (router or pihole or other), then you filter facebook related requests. Done! Works perfectly fine for me, doesn't eat up resources.

The first real solution for web and apps. Thank you sir.

perfect explained

Hi Mr Haddad, I made the settings, but the ip addresses of facebook do not appear in the address list so can not work on dropping

hi sir thanks for your video appreciate it, can you make a video only to allow youtube on a specific ip on mikrotik

when you did this vid was your mikrotik in bridge mode or router mode

Does this technique work for Tiktok, RU-vid and other social media websites and Apps?

nice one sir... can you please show your method in blocking games like Mobile Legend?

This option can be detect DNS queries and block DNS server, then check port 443/tcp (443/udp maybe) and 80/tcp, also limit "Connection-bytes=0-8000" to check first 8kb before TLS encrypt.

Thank you. Its working.

Truth be told i have blocked RU-vid while watching this tutorial on RU-vid … call me stupid

excuse me content

Hi. Great video. I'm having a hard time with workers on Facebook and WhatsApp. *First question* that I have: Can you set "none dynamic" to let it collect forever, instead of 96 hours, done in your configuration (could this be set forever)? *Second question* : I watched your other video that blocks WhatsApp. I tried that IP list, but I don't think it's working with WhatsApp... I issued an netstat -a command in Windows and it shows whatsapp-cdn-shv-01-gru1.fbcdn.net that's on IP 157.240.222.60. We can see here that somehow that list needs constant feed since this can only be a new server. The ticks are still going. Would we need new IP information? Is there a way to block WhatsApp by content argument - specially blocking on cell apps. We need to block this... And thank you again for using Mikrotik with this. Many thanks.
