Unable to send group texts over WiFi with Firewalla installed. Messages I try to send fail and ones I receive can't be downloaded. Once I unplug Firewalla it works fine. Tried turning off Active Protect and removing the few blocks I had added but those steps didn't help.

  We have seen this happen when the user accidentally blocked some of the critical sites for messaging ...

  Tap on the "rules button" and then look at the list of rules, see if you have anything blocked ... if you don't know what it is, try to pause it.

  Correct, I blocked a Google service at www.googleapis.com. Saw an article where this could be leveraged by hackers so tried blocking it but that caused this problem.
