Getting to know the Website Filter feature

Website Filters provide a first layer of whole-home Internet protection to guard your network from unsafe and inappropriate websites on any device that is connected to your network.  The Website Filter feature on the Belkin router is powered by Norton.  

The Website filter feature has four (4) filtering options:
 
1.  Block malicious, adult, and other non-family-friendly sites - Blocks malware, phishing, and scam sites and also sites that contain sexually explicit material, mature content, abortion, alcohol, tobacco, crime, cult, drugs, gambling, hate, suicide, or violence.
 
2.  Block malicious and adult sites - Blocks malware, phishing, and scam sites and also sites that contain sexually explicit content.
 
3.  Block malicious sites - Blocks malware, phishing, and scam sites.
 
4.  No filters

 NOTE:  If you think a site should be added to the filtering list, you may submit a request at safeweb.norton.com.
 
Content filtering may not work as intended if: 
  • You are connecting through a VPN router.
  • You are routing traffic through a proxy server.
  • You have previously visited the site and it has been stored in your cache.
  • You manually set the DNS servers on your computer, tablet, or smartphone.
