Using Parental
Controls

The abundance of harmful information on the Internet poses a serious challenge
for employers and parents alike - “How can I regulate what my employee/child
does on the Internet?” The Broadband Router’s Parental Controls allows users
to regulate, control, and monitor Internet access. By classifying and categorizing
online content, it is possible to create numerous Internet access policies and easily
apply them to networked computers.

Activating Parental Controls

To create a basic access policy for a computer on the Router’s network, click Parental
Control from the top of the Home screen and follow these instructions:

1. The “Parental Control” screen appears. Click in the “Enable” check box to activate

the access policy mechanism.

2. Enter a “Rule Name” and “Description” for the access policy in the appropriate

text boxes.
