Hi. I use a router to load balance two internet connections, I previously had just one internet conection and used opendns with the Opendns updater without problems to block adult content, But now opendns show a messaje saying you can only use one internet conection. 

Is there a way to have load balance and use opendns to block adult content?. Thanks

    Sure, you can use OpenDNS with as many internet connections as you want. Here are your options:

    • Configure a persistent route to route all DNS lookups and updates out over one gateway only.
    • Configure two OpenDNS networks, maybe with a second account, and configure two Updaters each dealing with a specific gateway only. This also may require configuring persistent routes. This would be the preferred option for load-balancing.
    • If it is about blocking "adult content" only, don't use the dashboard at all, i.e. delete your network there, but just configure the OpenDNS FamilyShield addresses only.

    Thank you. I just put both opendns familyshield dns ips : 208.67.222.123 and 208.67.220.123 as the dns servers of brazilfw and now I can't see any porn. Well, I'm blocking that because here in mexico on a state there is a new law with max 5 years of prison if you are an internet coffe and you ""facilitate"" porn to underage people, that law Is way beyond $%&# .

    Thanks.
