How to unblock an IP?

Title says it all, how do I unblock a blocked ip that cox automatically blocked for "security" reasons without turning off the security feature off? The domain wasn't blocked, the IP was blocked, if it were the case of the Domain I could just allow it- but since it's an IP it doesn't have anything like that.

Does anyone know a way around this?

    Hi @C4lvin
    Are you using our Panoramic Wifi Modem with Advanced Security Feature? If so you should be able to use the Cox Wifi app and press 'Connect' at the bottom and then Advanced Security and then you should be able to see what was blocked and press on it if it is not a threat.

      Hello bens1

      I am indeed using the Panoramic Wifi Modem with the ASF. I know about "Allow Access" but this only works for suspicious websites, but not for IP reputation.
