These generally block adult and the Proxy/Anonymizer domains.'' So I tried this and it works although it doesn't block all of the sites I need blocked, its a good start. You replied ''You could use the OpenDNS FamilyShield addresses 208.67.222.123 and 208.67.220.123 instead of the normal OpenDNS resolver addresses. However I found half a solution from a post I read eariler from someone in a similar scenario. but I don't feel thats relevant when the software is supposed to filter internet with no way of gettting past the blocks. I know its not normal behavior to reset the router like that. I'm aware of the fact that for the large majority of users, they are trying to filter their children or family (others) so this 3 minutes of no filter might not be as much of an issue because the OpenDNS user can reset the router at night or when nobody is home.įor self-filterers this is a pretty big flaw though and one that could be a deal breaker.

I set that up and it works.īUT when I reset the router to test it, it takes minutes until it starts filtering sites again after the internet comes online. so I looked into it and found that I needed to download the OpenDNS Updater software to automatically pass my filters on to my new ip everytime it resets. Hi, I'm a new user of OpenDNS, someone trying to filter 'themselves' on a single computer, which I've managed to set up and it all was working fine until I reset my modem/router and my ip changed.
