Title: DIR-655 webfiltering not working?
Post by: sudz28 on January 18, 2011, 04:31:26 PM

It seems (and should be) pretty straight forward; under ADVANCED go to WEBSITE FILTERING and enter in the URI, or partial URI, that you want blocked and make sure the drop-down menu is "DENY computer access to ONLY these websites".  The only problem is, I can still get to all of them.  Does anyone know why this happens or what the fix is?  I saw in another forum that you had to check "Enable Access Control" and go through a 6-step process where you specify machines - I truly hope that isn't the solution, because it's needlessly complicated for most users who only want to block ALL devices on their network from accessing certain sites.
My Hardware Version is B1 and my Firmware version is 2.00NA.
Thanks!

yes the access control policy is the solution.....in the access control policy set up you check a box to use the web filter you previously created and saved....
