Have you checked your hosts file?

Code: Select all

cat /etc/hosts
Normally it's something like this, just 9 lines:

Code: Select all

127.0.0.1	localhost
127.0.0.1       hp

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1		localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0		ip6-localnet
ff00::0		ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1		ip6-allnodes
ff02::2		ip6-allrouters

@Kermit the Frog Interesting. My /etc/hosts file has over 13,000 entries.

Is a Blue-Billywig video site and works well with Firefox133 in Germany (MX21 and german IP).
It is an example, there are more video's and pictures in sites which don't work. Not much btw..
It wás right. It is no concern to me, but by accident I noticed it.

(What is Blue-Billywig? :lol: )

Yep, that's normal if you have ever run the Adblock (from menu), just once is enough. There must be also a line (right after these) stating that the below is done by antiX Adblock tool ...

Ok, then at least we know that they're not (kind of) blacklisted by your system.

Do they work if you create a new user and log in as them?

If not, do they work from a Live Session?

You can also run a browser from the terminal and see if any relevant error messages show when you try to play one of those.
MXPI = MX Package Installer
QSI = Quick System Info from menu
The MX Test repository is mostly backports; not the same as Debian testing

The video's do not work from the live-session. Moving weather-charts work.
The img also did.
( Sort of control: Smartphone does both.)

Might have already been asked.. is there a router between computer and modem? If so, connect directly, try again.
