I have an eero home wifi network and have been testing eero's ad blocking feature. Surprisingly, the device with the most ad blocks is the roku. On days when I haven't watched tv, eero is blocking 2000 requests, and on days when I do watch TV, it's as many as 10,000. I think I'm going to turn off ad blocking since I don't think it's fair to not 'pay' for content. But the high number of blocks from the roku is disconcerting. Any idea why it's so high?
Maybe when you block an ad, it retries the ad?

Certainly could be. It's just interesting that an idle roku is now seeing as many as 4000 blocks in one day, as compared to an active cell phone getting a similar number.
eero only blocks screen ads it has nothing to do when watching free content that is supported by ads. You will still see these ads while watching. I personally like it eero ads blocking as it speeds up my network.
