How to restrict site access and broadband speed?

John2009 · 2010-09-14 17:33:56

Hi i'm wondering is it possible to restrict access to certain websites (not porn or anything) :D just those stupid online sites where you can play games, sites like Mousebreaker.com and bigfishgames.com etc?? We currently have UPC 30Mb with the Cisco EPC2425 at home, is it possible to set up a program or such to do this…

Try Opendns, it has adult content filtering, you add it to your router. If you have dynamic ip you're going to need to install software to update it.
