OpenDNS is handy. You

1/ Sign up for an account 2/ Configure your home's router to use their DNS servers 3/ Install an agent on a machine in your home's network, authenticate it with your account credentials. When your router's IP address changes, this agent makes sure to update your account. 4/ Configure the sites or types of site you want to block.

Once you're up and running, If a DNS request from your network matches something that'd be blocked, you'll get re-directed to a "Blocked Content" page.

Unless you also block outgoing DNS requests on the router, this seems like a 10 minute (before being defeated) solution at best.

A search for "get around opendns content blocked" returns instant, step-through guides to change your browser/OS DNS settings.

I assume that someone who's configuring their router will also be configuring their children's devices in such a way that the children won't have permissions to make those changes.

I'd need to look into what machine will be running the agent, but this is look like a really good solution. Thanks!
