Can I set up parental controls on my Linksys router?

Asked 2 years ago
Yes, it is indeed possible to set up parental controls on a Linksys router. Linksys offers a user-friendly way to manage internet access for devices connected to the network. This feature allows users to restrict certain websites, limit internet access during specific hours, and monitor online activity of connected devices. To begin, users typically need to access the router's web-based interface. This can be done by entering the router's IP address in a web browser. Once logged in, one can navigate to the parental controls section, where various options will be available. Users can select specific devices to manage, define which websites to block, and set schedules for when internet access should be restricted. Furthermore, Linksys also has an application that offers an alternative way to manage parental controls from smartphones or tablets. This application provides convenience and additional features, such as real-time monitoring and notifications for connected devices. For detailed instructions and the latest updates on parental control features, it may be useful to refer to the official Linksys website, particularly in the support section.
