 It seemed that when I installed OpenDNS on my ARRIS TG862G that all went well. I have the updater and it says that the correct IP address is being filtered, but when I tried to block the web browser on my Sharp smart TV it wouldn't block that domain. Any ideas?

  First of all, you cannot install OpenDNS anywhere, because it is not software, and you cannot filter IP addresses with an updater, generally not, and a router cannot allow OpenDNS to block.  This is not how all of this works.

  Visit http://welcome.opendns.com/ on this smart TV device and tell me the result.

  If it says that you're using OpenDNS, ensure that your correct IP address is registered at https://dashboard.opendns.com/settings/
