Does anyone know how to block websites at something like the router level? I find myself able to get around normal browser-level blockers fairly easily. I'd love to use some parental controls against myself from like 6-5pm on weekdays
- 1123581321 4y agoA custom DNS provider in the router is probably easiest. Use NextDNS or CloudFlare for Families with controls on, and then give the login for the DNS and the login for your router admin to someone else.

- rr888 4y agoI did this, works great until you realize how easy it is to pause blocking.
- dehrmann 4y agoIf you have DoH enabled, it's hard. If you don't, with OpenWrt, it's easy enough to configure its DNS server to add IPs to ipsets after a lookup, then configure the firewall to drop those requests over a time window. > I find myself able to get around normal browser-level blockers fairly easily. You're still just 30 seconds away from disabling the rule.

- bishopsmother 4y agoIf you're willing to be a beta tester - I'll set you up with a free account (see about[0]); I'm open to suggestions/implementing new features based on user demand (e.g. Slowdown as a Service).
