Unable to configure parental controls

I am trying to block specific websites on my router but whenever i try to do so it logs me out and changes nothing

I am using o2 wireless box iv and logging in as the administrator using the details on the back of my box. I have configured other settings on my box without trouble it just seems to be this setting.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Re: Unable to configure parental controls

I'm having the exact same problem, have you managed to find a solution yet?

Edit: just found the solution, when it asks for your login again use SuperUser and your serial for the password and it works!

Re: Unable to configure parental controls

Rather than relying on the box guys, why not take a look at the Bluecoat K9 protection software?

Bluecoat produce some of the best enterprise level border protection, used by some seriously big names (government etc) and it uses the same databases.

Best of all though is it is free.

I blogged about it last year: http://www.johncock.co.uk/blog/index.php?/archives/13-K9-free-Internet-Protection-from-Blue-Coat.html
