Hi,

Right now we are using OpenDNS HomeVip to block some domains at the office. It works great but i would like to know if we can block the domains al certain hour a day.

For example we block Facebook during working hours but I would like to know if we can leave Facebook open at lunch time. Thanks

  No, OpenDNS filtering, for any of their products, cannot be done on a scheduled basis. You could however do that with a Netgear browser running LPC, but since that is incompatible with the other OpenDNS products you'd need to stop using one or the other.

  OpenDNS Home VIP is, as the name says, for home use only.  You most likely violate OpenDNS'  terms of service if you use it for office purposes.  The way to go is to use a Netgear router with LPC enabled, as mattwilson9090 said.

  Hi all

  I have written an automated solution for this (OpenDNS block scheduling), which only requires a Windows computer & a web browser.

  Contact me on Reddit (u/djek511) & I’ll elaborate, & share the files & steps to get set up.
