Streaming pages blocked?

Since yesterday I am facing some problems mostly related to streaming pages (Netflix, amazon prime video, twitch)

Expected Behaviour:

The pages are opened.

Actual Behaviour:

Netflix returns ERR_CONNECTION_RESET
Twitch shows a spinning circle.
Amazon prime video returns error code 7131.

Debug Token:

These tools can help you determine if Pi-hole is blocking your desired content:

So when I call netflix I get the following in the query log

Adam networks is only showing this:

  • www.netflix.com
  • pi.hole

When I disable pihole I am still not able to access the pages, but I guess this disable function is only related to blacklists and so on and not regarding DNS or something similar, right?

That observation would suggest that Pi-hole's DNS blocking isn't involved, and also the error messages you list do hint at a connectivity problem rather than DNS (where the typical message of a browser would read similar to ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED).

Ok it looks like there was a misconfiguration in the router which blocked streaming pages. So this can be closed
