How Do I Set Up Filtering on a Belkin Router?

Note: For standard DNS, access is controlled by IP address. This is to prevent abuse of our servers by bad actors. When you sign in on the blockerDNS website, your IP address is automatically whitelisted. Before changing your router’s DNS settings, just make sure you sign in from a device on your WiFi first so that your house’s IP is added to your account. You can always manually add/remove IPs in account management also.

Step 1
Sign into your Belkin router’s admin page at http://192.168.2.1.

Step 2
Go to DNS under the Internet WAN section from the menu on the left.

Step 3
In the DNS Address field, put the address of your 1st “Standard DNS Server”. This address can be found on your “Settings” page (e.g. 35.231.153.40 – the number of digits may vary).

Step 4
In the Secondary DNS Address field, put the address of your 2nd “Standard DNS Server”. (e.g. 34.74.96.85)

Step 5
Click Apply Changes.

Step 6
If you’re asked to restart the router, go ahead and do that.

Step 7
Whichever computer(s) or device(s) you’re using should be restarted so that it can reconnect to your router and get the new DNS information.
