Chapter 5: Using the Linksys Parental Control Service

Chapter 5: Using the Linksys Parental Control Service

Overview

This chapter will describe the Linksys Parental Control Service*, as well as explain how to sign up for the Service,

manage your account, and use the Internet when the Service is actively controlling Internet traffic and messages.

Introduction

The Linksys Parental Control Service makes it easy for you to keep your family safe on the Internet. The Service

gives you powerful tools to control the availability of Internet services, access, and features, customizable for

each member of the family.

Choosing from 16 different web content categories, you control what each family member is allowed to see.

Each website request triggers a search through our constantly updated database, which determines whether or

not to allow the content through, based on who's logged in. You can also manually block or allow specific

websites based on your own judgment.

To protect your family from unsolicited messages, you can set up e-mail and Instant Message filters. You select

who can send messages to, and receive messages from, your family. If your children are spending too much time

online, you can set time restrictions by hour and day of the week.

To keep you informed of your family's online activities, full reports are available to view or download. You can see

each family member’s blocked and unblocked Internet activities, to keep you “in the loop” on their changing

interests. Setting up and customizing each family member’s settings is a snap with the friendly web-based

menus—even if you're not the family's usual network administrator. Because the Parental Control Service is

based in the Router, not your PCs, it can't be bypassed and keeps every Internet device in your household

equally protected.

* Available in US and Canada only.
