Hello,

before continuing please let's double check that everything is correctly configured.
Get inside the Whitelist IP feature and try to add a new entry. You will see an IP address on the screen, write it down.
Then go to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ and check if the IP are the same or not.

If they are different, then go inside the Configure WAF page and enable the option IP Workarounds.

If they are the same, let me know so we can continue toubleshooting.

Ok, I just wanted to double check.
You can create a dynamic DNS that points to your current IP (home/office), then insert that DNS into the IP field in the Whitelist IP page.
You can find more details and the exact steps to use here: https://www.akeebabackup.com/documentation/admin-tools/waf-ip-whitelist.html

I didn't do anything right now because I think I figured when is Admintools is blocking me.
It is blocking in the backup process and doesn't know why?

It's not blocking the backup process, it means that someone tried to reach the Akeeba Backup page directly, without supplying the secret param in the request, so Admin Tools blocks it.
This usually happens when your browser (or a browser extension) is trying to take a screenshot of the page.

Which browser are you using?
Do you have any extension installed? As previously written, this usually happens when the browser is trying to fetch a preview of the most visited pages, triggering the security exception since they won't use any query params (like the the Admin Query String one)
