I use a router with [ADAMnetworks](https://adamnet.works/) loaded on it for extra security.  
I recently found that github no longer was accessible and this was caused by the router. When I contacted ADAMnetworks, they refered to an article about [StripedFly malware](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/stripedfly-malware-framework-infects-1-million-windows-linux-hosts/) that has recently come to light and is spread by GitHub among other websites. Because of this, GitHub is now by default blocked by ADAMnetworks on my router. I have to manually allow it.  
I thought I would point it out and see what others are doing or if they have had a problem.

Isn’t that throwing out the baby with the bathwater, a bit? “My router is blocking https, as malware was found to spread via https websites, among other web protocols” 😉

That is, maybe it’s time to remove [ADAMnetworks](https://adamnet.works/) from your router.
