Title: DGL-4500 WebFilter Yahoo Connection Problem
Post by: tdwyer on January 10, 2009, 03:34:58 PM

On Access Control when set to a computer MAC Address with webfilter set to enable Yahoo and nothing else,  when you go to that computer and login you get the main yahoo URL but everything else is restricted to being blocked.

So how do you set up a router to restrict everything except a yahoo email login URL on a specific computer.

What you are trying to do will enable MANY MANY rules, and that isn't really acceptable.  So, it's safe to say what you are looking for you will not find here in this router.

What kind of environment are you using this in, which requires you only to have access to Yahoo?

If it's a school or something, you can block access to tons of stuff by using Open DNS.
