Blocking Sites
The modem router provides a variety of options for blocking Internet-based content and
communications services. With its content filtering feature, the Wireless-N Modem Router
prevents objectionable content from reaching your PCs. The modem router allows you to control
access to Internet content by screening for keywords within Web addresses. Key content filtering
options include:
• Keyword blocking of HTTP traffic.
• Outbound service blocking. Limits access from your LAN to Internet locations or services that
you specify as off-limits.
• Denial of service (DoS) protection. Automatically detects and thwarts denial of service (DoS)
attacks such as Ping of Death, SYN flood, LAND Attack, and IP spoofing.
• Blocking unwanted traffic from the Internet to your LAN.
The following section explains how to configure your modem router
to perform these functions.
To block keywords and sites:
1. Log in to the modem router at its default LAN address of http://192.168.0.1 with its default
user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever password and LAN
address you might have previously set for the modem router.
2. In the main menu, under Security, select Block Sites to display the following screen
