How to setup and secure your home network using OpenDNS - Video 2020
Hello world if you want to learn more about network security, IT or anything related to technology let me know and let us all learn together.
Here is how to easily secure your home network for free. OpenDNS Protection is a safer, faster, smarter way to resolve all your domain names while you surf the internet. How it works is that you replace your current router DNS IP addresses with either OpenDNS Home or Family. After this change, they will filter all your website queries, protect, and filter out malicious and harmful domains. Think of DNS as your address book to the internet and using OpenDNS will ensure that you do not call malicious contacts by mistake.

How many times did you say "guys"? Very distracting. You don't need to address us each time because we are already watching it! :-) However, your instructions are clear and excellent. Everything was explained as it was on my machine. It works. Thanks.

so it blocks anyone who connects to the wifi from going on blocked websites?

@michaelvision2765 Год назад

thanks, well explained and good video

@bfitnessjoe 4 года назад

Thanks for this. I am using this as an inexpensive way to block specific sites on my network from my daughter such as social media and chat rooms. I have a list. I have ai mesh setup (ax11000 b rt5300) and it is mind blowing that these routers for how much they cost can’t be configured to block https domains straight out of the box. I mean we paid for that didn’t we ? I tested a tp link 130.00 router and it blocked everything you typed in like a champ. I was so disappointed in asus with the lack of the feature. Maybe if I flashed to Merlin it would work as intended ? Or are encrypted http*s web domains not meant to be read and blocked ? Well thanks for letting me see that manually setting my ip configuration in my PCs makes this work like a charm. You are a pro !

@fanaticoss12345 3 года назад

Hello Since I have dynamic ip from my ISP, can I use no-ip ddns hostname in my router so opendns is informed on the changes of my public ip and where do I add ddns hostname and details in opendns account?

@carlostejada3097 3 года назад

Hi filtering isnt working according to openDNS they are working but in reality this isn't working at all did some random tests and they keep showing, (gave them 24 hrs) and still coming when typing the URL, was reading and it was said that this had to do with IPv6. What should we do? OpenDNS has a solution (not smart) that disable on your equipment the IPv6, but this just doesn't work, the idea is have it controlled on just one single spot. But I guess they need to move forward to IPv6, now days EVERYTHING runs and use it

@thorn8334 11 месяцев назад

Great video! Thank you for posting. It worked and then a short while later stopped working :( Any suggestions?

@thedeathshock9635 3 года назад

I have a question, if you are using OpenDNS for ur router config and google DNS for ur laptop config that is connected to your router network, which one will be used in that case, your OpenDNS or google DNS? And can you simply bypass the OpenDNS block for a website in a network just by changing the DNS server in your laptop by going to control panel and changing the DNS server to Google?

@Noony79 3 года назад

Yep. Just hardcode your DNS to 8.8.8.8 and you will bypass. Don't tell my son

@B-a_s-H 3 года назад

You can use dnsmasq (if your router supports it) to forward dns traffic or create firewall rules to only allow dns traffic to (a) specific ip(s) like, in this case, the OpenDNS one(s).

@srdricks468 4 года назад

I’m don’t have the web content filtering option on the free open dns version. Are you using the v.i.p paid version for this demo?

@juggernauts9880 3 года назад

Hi, my ISP has fixed DNS - if I change its DNS, the internet stops working. Changing DNS of the secondary (access point router) also does not work. What should I do? Thank you.

@jonecj8139 3 года назад

i have been watching 4 videos but i was manually configureing my dns server

@itmanpinoy2528 4 года назад

If the user change their dns statically in their laptop, example 8.8.8.8. then he can already bypass the restrictions.. how can we prevent that?

@jayzijk 3 года назад

Make sure this windows profile does not have local admin access, just provide standard access. Admin credentials will be required for the user to make configuration changes.

@michaeldaha2011 4 года назад

Hi Dear, your explaining is very smooth but i've a problem that when i'm going to CMD window and flush dns then ns lookup. i've (C:\WINDOWS\system32>NSLOOKUP Default Server: UnKnown Address: fe80::1) not showing as you did please help me. thanks

@InfoSecPat 4 года назад

Thanks for the support. i would disable ipv6.

@SilvaOnTube 10 месяцев назад

Shouldn't I have to disable the DHCP Server Basic Configuration in the router's LAN page DHCP Server tab? That is, leave the default settings intact, but disable the local DHCP server, since we are now calling out to OpenDNS to act as our remote DNS proxy Server?

@sharar.5051 11 месяцев назад

what internet service provider and router/modem combo works with openDNS? Because I know google fiber and their router setup works but not some other internet service providers I am trying to use when google fiber isn't available in the area.

@SilvaOnTube 10 месяцев назад

OK, sorry this went on for multiple comments. I got everything working again and deleted the prior ones. The reason I could not save the local IP address changes was because 24 did not work for the subnet prefix length on my Windows 11. I had to type in the 255.255.255.0. Then it worked and I was able to save it. I moved on then. The one thing that concerns me is that I'm getting this message on the Asus router: "Your router's DHCP server is configured to provide a DNS server that's different from your router's IP address. This will prevent clients from using the DNS Privacy servers." Did your Asus router provide DNS Privacy servers? In other video instructions on changing DNS servers from Windows 11 local machine, they showed options to change encryption settings. I don't get that option on my Win 11 22H2 2261.2428. All I see is DNS over HTTPS off vs on with automatic template or manual template. Asus was not much help on the DNS Private servers warning. I'm searching some forums for help. Thanks though, overall your video is excellent. I like your channel and subscribed.

Hey pat, i see that they now have a pro-sumer version that is 20$ per user, do you know if this account can be setup on the router to protect the "home" environment ?

@InfoSecPat 2 года назад

To be honest I just use the free version. I’m sure you can install on your router for sure. If you want you can change your DNS on your router to see if it works. Keep me updated I’m intrigued

@JasonsLabVideos 2 года назад

@@InfoSecPat I wanted to pay the 20$ for the year support so i have malware protection.. I'll keep you updated and let you know!

@rustyreview 11 месяцев назад

if i want the effect to happen at the router level, would setting the router's ip as the dns (at the device) work if the router has the opendns statis dns ip's set?
